    Am a bit more aware of the way this Combo Shaves, so despite dealing with 2 days growth it was completed without mishap. In fact not a bad Shave in terms of comfort and finish.

    First time out with Tarmax SE, 7 setting. As expected the required angle felt awkward on my head. Certainly smooth but tricky to catch the stubble on the noggin top. Finished with a MMOC. It took me a couple shaves with the injector version to get used to the angle, i expect same here. No operational issues here at all.[​IMG]

    I had an awesome shave with this Gem Featherweight that my kids got me for my birthday. The top cap was slightly pitted which gave me an excuse to sand it down to bare brass. This horse hair brush sheds A LOT. I ended up switching to a synthetic half way through the shave.

    I had a very nice two-pass shave with a GEM Featherweight and a third-use stainless PTFE blade. I haven't used the old favorite Proraso Red for a while and I finished it off with some Clubman Vanilla for a near-BBS result.

    Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

    Extremely smooth, in fact so smooth that tended to rush a bit without checking the finish in one area before moving on to the next. However, the overall quality of finish still rather good.

    Razor: Yaqi V2 Excalibur AC 50mm, Mfg 2021> excellent tame mid range, good design, top cap needs manually alignment because of issues from some V1 Excalibur(no problems with my V1). I get great shaves mostly & excellent shave results is the bottom line.

    Soap: Ach Brito Lavanda cream, nice mild lavender scent, excellent lather qualities,(misted)
    Brush: Yaqi Artic sky 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, great scrubber, excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups.
    Post shave: Ach Brito Lavada AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(Balm) + scentless.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= [​IMG] excellent shave with Yaqi V2 Excalibur with a Schick P30 proline.

    Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion

    With Two days growth to deal with,I found that there was a lot of blade feel and the initial clearance strokes were quite harsh and overall Shave time felt quite long. Though the Shave was completed without mishap I was a bit disappointed with the overall finish quality.

    I was so busy yesterday I didn't get around to posting this fantastic shave. The J.A. Henckels Rapide razor performed flawlessly and the Mer Shavings Fougère Orange whipped up wonderfully with a Zenith Boar brush.
