Occam Oren (b grade) with a Kai protouch.
First shave... two dot
Light weight shaver, a bit distant reminds me of a genesis. Allmost no feedback had to look in the soap scrapes to see if it did cut.
but no irritation and a dfs/bbs so realy good for a first shave.
What am I lacking a little is that smooth glide some other razors give while mowing down everything

Soap: ARKO
Lather: Face Explosion
Post: Thayers WH Aloe

The Shave: WTG/XTG/ATG for a BBS. No irritation “guided by the eye” for a great shave. ARKO ridiculously good as always.

Supply V1 & V2-3dot plate / Personna S/S [ 2 ]
Quite pleased at the way the Shave went as Two days growth to deal with, have never tried it with the Supply. I think that this confirms to me that perhaps the Personna blade is the one that works best for me in this Razor.

Razor: Blackland Vector SB
Blade: Schick Proline (1)
Brush: Yaqi Moka 26mm 2 band Badger
Soap: Haslinger Schafmilch
Post: Thayers WH Aloe
Aftershave: Mennen Skin Bracer

The Shave: First of all the results are very, very good, DFS+ Going WTG (2) & ATG. The Yaqi Moka was so cool to use, it’s gigantic in bloom, dense, good backbone, scrubby, really a nice brush. Bonus: I bought it for less than $15.
Not sure if I’m a ProLine fan, the results were nice but it felt “tuggy”. I certainly didn’t expect tugging on a first WTG pass. I didn’t get any irritation, so I’ll try the same blade again in the Vector and them move it to the Hawk V2 to see how it feels. I have four other ProLines in case this is just a bad example of the blade and/or it was messed up during shipping.
Stay safe & have fun!
Tim
