The Hawk V3 is a fantastic razor. I have two: SB and OC. I have a feeling that the most aggressive version is a bit beyond me, so I'm stickin' with two for now.
With a guarded Kai Pink I found the V3SB almost too mild to cut. Same blade in the V3OC and I got a fair shave but it was still pretty mild.
With an unguarded Kai Pink, the SB gives nice smooth shaves. Once I've done that for a while I'll return to the OC, with an unguarded Kai blade. I'm expecting good things, as I prefer OC razors generally.
Advice is just to take your time. When I start a new razor, I occasionally keep a more familiar shaver tooled up and ready to go. Then I do the WTG pass with the new razor, XTG (if doing) and ATG with the one I know better. Might save your face a little.
Yer on the right track, just keep on truckin'.
O.H.
That’s a great idea, thanks O.H.
