Prep:Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion Brush:Rooney 1/3 Super Silvertip Badger Soap: Haslinger Schafmilch (Tallow) Razor:Wolfman WR1 Blade:Polsilver Super Iridium (1) Post:Thursday Plantation Tea Tree & Witch Hazel, CRSW Alcohol-Free American Barbershop Moisturising Aftershave Scent:Chanel Antaeus
First shave with the WR1, so I paired it with a blade and soap I am well familiar with. The Haslinger lather was delightful, and very slick indeed.
Three very comfortable passes - the razor felt very precise and rock-solid. Not a hint of resistance in the ATG final pass, which is always a very good sign for me.
After three passes, I was very much at BBS. The only negative was some minor tenderness on the sides of my mouth, almost certainly due to a little too much pressure.
I don't have much experience with the more aggressive razors - I would say that the efficiency seemed quite similar to my Blackland Blackbird.
Wonderful post-shave feel from the tallow Haslinger Schafmilch soap.
