Wow...love this cream. Smells great, lathers great, shaves great...I could use it every day.

Anyway, really nice 3-pass shave today.

Another fun bit of kit today. Both razors were hacks. First pass was my SuperClick Flexball v4 loaded with Bic CP. Second and Clean up were with a (very) junky Yaqi Katana (v1?) head on a Baili handle loaded with a Japan Schick injector blade. That razor is (poorly) designed for 1/2 DE, but the Schick was loads better and is much safer. Lots of blade feel and sharpness, no chatter. A very smooth secure shave- Mr Shiny Face in fact.


If you have the head and and an injector blade, give it a shot. It is pretty awesome. As you can make the razor heavier than injectors, it may even be better than injector razors. Alignment is a touch finicky, but worth it!
 
Evening, last night's shave:

Razor: Hydro-magic Golden 500
Blade: Schick Injector (unknown uses, but many)
Pre: Hot Water
Soap: Razorock American Barber
Brush: Omega Boar Pro
Aftershave: Aqua Velva
Post: Eucerin Complete Repair

The Razorock whipped up into a great slick lather. The shave was smooth and easy with just a slight tingle on the aftershave. Received a super close long lasting result with no post shave irritation. I don't have a big collection of SE razors, but of the ones I do have, this is the favorite.

10/10

Cheers
