Greetings from Santa Rosa, CA
 
Finishing up my Mach 3 carts, shave #5 with this one (some tugging on pass #2 when I applied too much pressure), a 2-pass DFS. My 2cd consecutive use of the Proraso cream, I enjoyed it so much last time, great lather, glide and moisture. Zero irritation feedback from the Classic Shaving alum block. Great finish with the AV!

Mach 3 is my favorite cartridge razor! Also don’t mind Barbasol twin-blade disposables. I still prefer my Van Der Hagen tho 😄
