Nice shave today. The past couple of shaves have been a little uncomfortable and resulted in some irritation. I changed out the blade in the G1 today and perhaps found the culprit. Two days growth was swiped away easily and efficiently. The American Blend soap is really nice lather. You all who read my posts know that I love that scent so I enjoy the soap and aftershave combination that matches.

In any event, nice shave and I'm feeling ready to cheer on the Crimson Tide today in the Iron Bowl. Have a great day and ROLL TIDE!

 

Thank you.

 

Twins on 5, Plus Platinum on 7/6 (a little irritation on 7). Very close and comfortable shave from both blades. Obviously will have to play with settings but first shave with the M was very impressive. Both razors have the Protector slider.

 

Fantastic razor, well done, sir.

Bill

 

That is just a really well laid out photo. Excellent!

A wonderful shave to relax after a day of giving thanks. I'm not a Black Friday shopper, so this is as much as I'll participate.
BeSmooth and shave it up, everyone!

Thanks Bill. I actually got one of my best shaves with that in quite a while. It's great when I don't want to get too close if you know what I mean.
