Razor : Yaqi Sentinel 1.50mm 316 SSP head with a Yaqi Teardrop 316 SSP handle. Mfg 2022>,mild range using a standard Gillette blade. Machining and design + finish are top notch for a excellent razor for my shaving needs.
Lately I have been enjoying this razor because it just works well. Very smooth shaver with the 1.5 mm gap makes for a decent daily driver also(this is the proper gap for this type of blade loading design style for comfort and closeness IMO)! This would be a excellent daily driver with a persons favorite handle attached IMO.
This razor works well with a shallow angle(riding the cap) I have tried a steep angle shave a few times but the results are not as good ! Had a close comfortable stellar shave this morning.
Blade : GSB(3) sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity. Top tier blade in my shave den.
Soap : Proraso green eucalyptus menthol, interesting masculine menthol scented with excellent lather qualities.
Brush :Yaqi "Lucky dice" 26mm tuxedo knot. Excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Great brush for a person with large hands with a great synthetic knot.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Proraso green with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :
or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=
Had a close comfortable stellar shave this morning with my Yaqi Sentinel razor with a GSB blade. Smooth shave this morning!
Have some great shaves!

Glad you’re back, Brian. You have some lifestyle changes forced on you, but there are many wetshavers on thinners still living the smooth life with their safety razors

Sending prayers your way.
I had another captastic shave today!
Most often I use a neutral angle. But today I loaded a cheap Indian Blade called a "Topaz". Others have remarked that the blade literaly "skips across" their face. It did for me as well. However the sensation immediatley made me ride the cap. One of those 'very troubled' but in the end a decent shave.
I keep trying to use a neutral angle for its quickness, but my ham hands insist I use the cap to avoid a regular scraping
Glad to be back in Crapville.....
