Shave #142 of 366 in 2024.
I kept this Gillette adjustable from a pass around box and swapped in a different razor. I'm impressed by it with the Derby Premium blade. I think I'll use this razor for a while and rotate a few different blades through it.

366 shaves in 2024
Shave#142 of 366 remaining 224(100%)

Razor:
Rockwell 6C R6
Blade: Gillette Blue 2 (4)
Brush: Yaqi Moka-Express 2 band
Soap: Tabac
A/S: CK Davidoff Cool Water
Post Shave: Nivea Hyaluron Gel

Tonight I switched back to the Tabac/Moka 3017 combo that has been so successful for the last 5 weeks. I also changed up the razor with the Rockwell 6C paired with the Gillette Blue 2. The shave was excellent and the Rockwell gave me a BBS with no irritation. I'm not sure if I should use the Rockwell tomorrow or give the Lupo a try.
 
Tuesday 21st May, shave #142

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat (Tallow)
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC.84 OC, Al Handle, Astra SP #7
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Nivea Balm

I stayed with the open comb, and aimed for a comfortable DFS. The good thing about this razor is how effective it is WTG. If I just did a perfunctory 1-pass shave with selective tidying up, it would be at least a CCS 7 days a week.

It's not so great for ATG use.
