Quest for a better shave

Razor: RazoRock GC-68P (216)
Blade: Gillette Perma-Sharp Stainless (1)
Pre-shave: Hot shower
Lather: Stirling Soap Co Naked & Smooth
Aftershave: Stirling Sandalwood post shave balm

No nicks; no irritation; Very close and very smooth. A pleasant DFS+ shave. On target. It feels like the GC68-P has a little bit more exposure than the Mamba 0.70. There was a little less clean up to do.

Perma-Sharps are awesome!

I tried them a few years back when they still had printed logos, thought they were identical to Nacets. Got a 100 pack of 2021 laser etched ones, and now they are pushing the top of my list! Every bit as sharp as Nacets, and almost as smooth as GSBs.

@Rosseforp the BB Lite seems to have just the right amount of efficiency. I purposely stopped to avoid over shaving until I get used to it.
