Carbon Cx in copper on its second use for me. Very pleased with this razor so far. Took extra time today for a third pass and some clean up on difficult spots and was well rewarded.

Head and face shave this morning
-Karve brass with SB-D baseplate
-Vintage Polsilver (6th and 7th use)
-RE badger brush
-Capt choice copper bowl
-PAA banana cube
-SW Samhain soap
-SW Samhain splash
Very comfortable and efficient shave. Bbs on face and dome with no nics or stinging from the alum block. I think this blade is nearing the end. It was very smooth on the face and most of my head shave but not as buttery smooth as it was before. I'll give it an 8th shave and see how it goes. Still comfortable on the head and face.
The scent of Samhain is phenomenal and one of my favorites. Performance of the soap is TOP notch.

Nothing to report but a smooth and quite close three pass shave. Almost bbs.
Enjoy your weekend, y'all!
@JAHE - the gold/chrome mix looks awesome!
The sandalwood lights me up when shaving, so I bought the fragrance to enjoy how cool it is without lighting up my face.
My highly efficient shave this morning was Micromatic Open Comb, GEM PTFE (5).

I had my first shave with it this morning and I’m impressed with its efficiency and smoothness. Looking forward to many great shaves with it.
