The last bits of OH Puck in the mug, plus a chunk of Proraso Green (red cedar, menthol, eucalyptus...interesting)

No blood, no nicks, no weepers, a little irritation in the usual spot, two passes, a little cleanup, DFS+.

One of the things I like about the hobby is gettin' outta bed on a shave day KNOWING that I've got a good shave coming.

O.H.

Its either that or the expectation that if not today, I will get it next time. Keeps me going. Ha ha.

I hear that! Another part of the hobby is gettin' outta bed on a shave day knowing that I'm going to have to "negotiate" a good shave from a razor I don't get on well with. And then there's tryin' a new razor, or a different blade, or new soap, or...

Lots of reasons to get outta bed on a shave day! Plus if I lay around too long my wife puts the dog on the bed so she can jump on my bladder.

Despite its apparent weight it feels very comfortable in the hand and delivers a good Shave. I prefer it to my late King Cobra, which really was heavy.
