Tonight’s shave
RazoRock JAWS 0.84
Shark Super Stainless (6)
Damp washcloth aka “shave binky”
AP ShaveCo Silksmoke 28mm synthetic brush
Pre-shave: hot shower
Lather: Col Conk Unscented and ARKO!, face-lathered
Post-shave: face wash with shave binky
Played with the lawnmower and then moved peonies from one garden to another (lots of clawing through sod) after work today. Wifey wielded the new weed wacker wonderfully. After fun, sun, and bug bites by the ton, it was bath time.
After a cold shower that felt like a treat, Happy Razor Fun Time commenced. A shallow ATG pass and a little cleanup under the neck and I was close enough for the win!

Razor: Yintal Bronze
Blade: Kai (8)
Brush: Yaqi Moka Express Synthetic 24mm
Pre-Shave: CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser Bar, Cremo Classic Shave Cream
Soap: Pedro Fiasco Pomegranate & Wood by Ariana & Evans
Aftershave: Ice water, Aqua Velva Musk, Duke Cannon A/S Balm
Growth: 101 hours
Passes: WTG, XTG, ATG
Rating: 10/10
Results: Successful debut shave with the Yintal Bronze 3-piece safety razor with solid brass handle & zinc alloy head. Smooth, efficient shave. The Yintal Bronze feels nice in the hand with good heft & balance. The solid brass handle is plated antique bronze with diamond cut knurling that provides a good grip for wet hands. The glossy coated close comb razor head is patterned after Edwin Jagger DE89 but with a flatter head base plate for improved efficiency. Blade balance & blade alignment was spot on. Youtuber Peg Leg measured 0.939mm blade gap. Fit & finish & ergonomics is good. This a comfortable well made razor that delivers a medium aggressive shave. Easily mowed down 4 days growth. BBS shave result. No bloodshed. Great Shave!

H.E.J.J. must mean something somewhere.
My last couple were;
Gillette New Long Comb (my most efficient i.e. aggressive)
Gillette Wilkinson Sword (german)
Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill Soap or Margaritas in the Arctic
Speick or Stirling Glacial Lime after shave. I think with this razor Speick will become the most used option.
I like my New Long Comb but man...it'll getcha
