Arko Adjustable April!!!!!

April 2

Razor - Soviet Consul (6)
Blade - (2)
Soap - Arko
Brush - Semogue 620
Post - Alum

Dial the Consul up to 6 and let's go shaving!! With the extra aggession on this razor compared to Gillette I'd say the equivalent setting on the Slim would be 8-9. I can see and feel the difference but it's all good. Well, mostly good. The blade tends to get a bit wonky as the gap increases on this razor and I can see just a hint of a drop in on corner of the blade on one side.

Arko and Semogue for the face lather win and three full passes tonight, just to see if I could get that much out of the brush after the initial face lather. I did, but it was close. The baby showed up at the end and the alum made me rethink the third pass just a bit, but overall it wasn't as hot as I've had it before. This razor will let you get too confident and increase that irritation though.

Next stop tomorrow is wide open at 9. Not sure that's as bad as setting Neal on the Futur but I'll be ready for some serious gap and a bit more wonk! Have a great Monday everyone!

Happy Birthday!

 

Thank you.
