Very good shave tonight indeed!
I've flipped this blade over in this razor and put it on a higher setting.
Perhaps I can double the amount of shaves on it.

well, that was an unexpectedly uncomfortable shave.... I guess my prep was not as thorough as it could have been, and maybe the Proraso doesn't work for me as well as my other pre shave...BBS, but a little irritated...
