RESULT: Stupendous! I got some great news yesterday morning: I received an offer from a large international law firm I'd been interviewing with since April. So, I felt like it was time to have a little celebration shave. The hardware and software in this shave are all top notch, and they performed as such. The sweet smell of almond filled the shave den while the moist lather worked its magic on my face. The Buddel is one of the best razors I've ever had the privilege of holding, let along using, and it effortlessly removed my 24 hours of growth. The first pass worked so well that the blade felt like it was sticking to my face on the second. I left the den feeling great and with a BBS that can't be believed.
