I know, i know, its supposed to be Blackland month!
I had refreshed a few of my Unmentionable SE's yesterday and just could not wait to give a couple of them a try, therefore, 2 were chosen to assist the Vector today by completing the WTG pass 1 razor per side, then finish off as usual with the Vector, simple.
A leisurely face lather today to prep the stubble, really nice to just enjoy building the lather and working it into the stubble, i built up a very slick, loose and creamy covering.
The Unmentionables were finished on different stones and are different styles, to be honest i do not think i am experienced enough to tell the differences between the edges, i just know they both work very well for me, very happy with that!
Anyway i completed a XTG then an ATG pass with the wonderful Vector fitted with the very forgiving Schick, still giving plenty of feedback through the razor and leaving me super comfortable and BBS.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All

You fellas make shaving complicated!
