I have to admit it was nice to take a break from OCtober with this to me new Matador Deluxe courtesy of the ever generous Jack Goossen.
This razor is mega smooth despite the initial idea that the blade gap is somewhat huge. And I now understand why Jack really wanted me to try this razor, because like the Razorine Flatboy it sings! Wonderful audio feedback.
Another day in shaving paradise. A great razor that should be in everyone’s collection - [Enablers, Inc messaging included] it is amazing! Jack Goossen - thank you again for this opportunity and razor. I would not have wanted to miss this!
