    Razor- Pre-War Fat Handle Tech
    Blade- GSB(2)
    Brush- VdH Boar
    Soap- VdH Deluxe

    This is my third shave with this razor and, as before, it has not disappointed. I can see that this is a mild yet efficient razor and why so many speak its praise.

    I'm wondering if I'm becoming a razor snob, though, as I just don't seem to *like* it as much as some of my other razors. I certainly can't fault its performance. Rather, its almost a visceral feeling... perhaps from the relative insubstantialness of the Tech. Anybody else find themselves feeling this way about a razor?

    Thank you. This was my first SOTD photo that I took even a bit of time. Felt like a dork but it turned out pretty nice. Good thing my wife is student teaching at the moment. She would have gave me flack ha-ha. Time to get creative
