SE SOTD, Wed, May19th 2021

Razor: Yaqi Excalibur 50mm- nice lower midrange, easy to maneuver around the face, like the feel of the razor & light weight. Great daily driver for some folks. Blade is starting to drop off a little.
Blade: Feather pro AC 50mm(5)- excellent blade, Sharp & smooth, longevity?
Soap: Razorock XXX- nice clean scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi Rainbow 26mm brown whiskers- excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice scrubber+ great 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. WTG+ ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Razorock XXX with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur with a Feather pro blade, still hitting the sweet spot.(blade starting to drop off a little)


Have some great shaves!

 

Interesting new design there. Am I seeing it right the head pivots?

 

Thanks! Yes, the head pivots to release the blade.

Puig Quorum A/S Lotion

I keep thinking that I met pass this Heavyweight on, then in the hand that weight seems to disappear and the Razor is a delight to wield. That soap might be a bit old scent wise but the lather is quite luxurious and brilliant to work with, so ended up with a rather nice close finish.

 

Lovely example of a C repeater. Quite envious.

A bit of a step down in Weight today, from the Hiram Commander to the skeletal Oren. For some time I have used this as a travel Razor, but as I have good results with my Yaqi AC/SE I am giving one a try this weekend . I through being a bit over confident got a nick around the tip of my chin, and area where the Yaqi feels a bit more forgiving.

SE SOTD, Fri, May 21st 2021, #7 of 7 testing shaves & time for a change up, I like variety.

Razor: Yaqi Excalibur, Mfg 2021> nice soft mid range, easy to roam the face, a lot wider blade than a Gem or Schick it seems, today I applied side blade direction depending on what side of face for more contact area, easy to use under the nose area. Something things you learn as you test a little with a wide blade in a safety razor. #7 of 7 shaves and done with my testing, conclusion great daily driver, soft mid range IMO and a nice change up of razors to use IMO. Excalibur price wise was decent & was not expecting a high end precision machined stainless steel razor for just thinking about trying the 50mm razor realm .
I'm a Gem razor user and enjoy that SE blade system most of all the SE systems but the 50mm blade system for shavette shaving with a Kai Protouch guarded blade is awesome & hard to beat for Shavettes for great comfort & results with out drama.
Blade: Feather Professional 50mm(6) excellent blade, Sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity. Pricey for blades.
Soap: Razorock Don Marco, nice different citrus scents with excellent lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi artic sky 24mm, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips with good scrub + great 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. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Razorock Amici (citrus scents) with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BbS + no irritation + no weepers= excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur 50mm with a Feather pro.


Have some great shaves!
