It's also rare for me to use the same razor two days in a row. I wanted to try this particular razor with a different blade after how mild it felt yesterday with the particular unmentionable blade. The Russian unmentionable blade I used today was more efficient but still felt very mild with the dial set to 9. The final finish feels near BBS with very little sting from the Aqua Velva aftershave. I also figured today was a perfect day to wear a Russian made Vostok Amphibia since I used a Russian blade. I actually think I will use this razor again tomorrow with a particular blade known for being extra sharp if I can dig one up.

I do have a little irritation on the left side of my chin/jaw which is down to me. Overall a very nice shave.

Heather Aftershave Toner Additional Care: Thayers Facial Tonic Witch Hazel Rose Petal Imperial Leather Talcum Powder RE: SOTD - February 2022 - GAW9576 - 02-14-2022 This is the 3rd day in a row with the same unmentionable. This time with the sharpest blade I know of. I could definitely feel the blade this time dial set to 9 still . Although it is a really sharp blade it stated out exceptionally smooth. Well until I got to the trouble spots on my neck. There it was a bit harsh and I had difficulty picking up the most stubborn hairs. So I think a mid range blade would be best overall in this razor. If I dial it down next time with a the same blade used today it could make a difference but then it seems to just take more passes on the stubborn hairs. The Oumo Boar knot whipped up a wonderful lather with the Cella. There was a definite strong sting from the Pinaud Clubman. Today's watch is the Casio G-Shock DW-5600E. |
