...but this one IS cracked.
Still in
Tonight's shave I went with the R41 with Stirling Sharp Dressed Man lathered with the Yaqi lucky dice. My blade of choice was the Astra SS(16). The soap was fantastic and the smell is amazing, it is always exciting to lather it onto my face after waiting quite a while to acquire it.
The blade seems to have let down this shave, even with the aggressiveness of the R41 it just didn't cut the stubble like it should giving a DFS- even after touchups, and the tugging left me with minor irritation, but I still broke out the Witch hazel and Nivea after shave Balm. It still has to.be Said that 16 is a good total for a blade, equalling the Personna platinum and beating my best Astra SP by 7 shaves, most impressive for a debut, but I will have to try another blade to see if it was a fluke, but with 22 new blades to try it might be a while before I get back to it
