    My first go with a Noble Otter soap and I enjoyed it, good cushion and slickness and maybe the residual slickness would've been there if I'd added a bit more water initially.
    Post shave was also good but I'm definitely going to push the water next time to see if it gets better.
    The scent on the other hand is an eleven, pity we can't get the splash over here.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Every time I use this razor I’m reminded why I think it is my favorite. Feels like a butter knife with the right angle and cuts through the stubble as well as or better than all of my others. Da comrades, is glorious. :happy036:

    Thank you Gus. The E plate is a touch more efficient. However it does have a good deal more blade feel. I got an F plate as well so I’ll remember to comment on it when I give it a try.

    Never thought about a witch hazel splash before shaving. Not a bad idea. I have some that's heavy mentholated. Might set a nice backdrop for the shave.
