Have a great day!​

 

SOTD, Fri, Jan 22 2021, Completes 7 of 7 consecutive daily shaves with my New Razorock Lupo.72, Great daily driver with medium or coarse beards with regular non sensitive skin IMO. For a razor that is made to last and for wonderful performance in the mid range and great under the nose with no blade tab overhang, it will be hard to be beaten by any razor ever made possibly(Personnal technique trumps all variables when shaving still IMO) & priced right for most to purchase IMO if looking for a new 316 Stainless steel razor.

Razor: Razorock 2nd generation Lupo .72- Mfg 2021>.Excellent razor, very efficient, carefree shave and well designed & built.
Blade: Personna Red(6) excellent blade, Sharp & smooth with good longevity.
Soap: Ogallala Bayrum & Sandalwood- great soap with excellent lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi lucky dice 26 mm tuxedo knot, excellent lather creator, cloud like soft tips, good for scrub and lather painting IMO.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the my cleaned face.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Witch hazel + Ogallala Bayrum & Sandal wood with clove + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers =excellent shave with my RR 2nd gen Lupo .72+ Personna Red blade.

Thank you!

On one hand, my English is poor, on the other one I do not trust you, so... clarify.
Are they removing the dust from the bike or are they putting it on it?

 

i am not sure which to be honest,it always looks dusty..

 

Thanks Gary.

Prototype injector V1.5, Personna blade, shave 1


Prototype injector based upon the Razorock Hawk V3 open comb razor designed to use injector blades. Machine work done by @twhite
The V2 is modified to be more aggressive while the V1 matches the shave geometry of the V3 Hawk open comb.

The V1.5 is the 1.0 modified for more blade gap than the V1 but less than the V2. If the V2 was brutal this one is a step down and is only vicious. Same close shave but without the need for a potential skin graft afterwards and only maybe half a pint of blood loss as opposed to a full pint using the V2. With that said the finish is a glass like BBS but without the skin being all burnt and super tight like with the V2.

 

I knew this was going to be wonderful shave when I picked up the Herder. And it was.

Hot water preparation
Argan Oil PSO
Romera Wengue Chubby Manchurian Badger
Castle Forbes lavender Shave Cream
Fried Herder 77 Square 6/8
Thayers Rose Petal Witch Hazel



Happy shaving - Karl
