Chiseled face titanium legacy razor
Gillette silver blue (1)
Grooming dept pre shave
Grooming dept chocolate mallard soap
Oumo titanium brush ex tyrant knot
Captains choice obsidian copper shaving bowl

1st outing with the chiseled face. Supplied is a tuck of gsb blades so thought try one.

Lather-bowl lathered using Marco method.

This razor is extremely capable of removing facial growth without any discomfort. So much so I opened up 3 or 4 weepers without even trying. Mabey it was my eagerness. Smooth? Yes. I think this beast does well using an angle closer to the cap. No blade overhang. Light and nimble. Great grip. It sings similar to a muhle rocca when shaving.

Think a different blade for next try.

Love it yes. Would say its not a beginner razor.

Second use of the Big Ben blade was much worse than the first time. Lots of tugging but surprisingly no irritation or weepers. It was the only one I had, courtesy of @dmshaver, but I don't see myself using one again.

Greetings,

A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

It's been a while since i last used The G F. Trumper Violet shaving cream and forgot how much i really like it's unique scent only a small amount is needed to create a excellent lather for the full shave leaving a superb post shave feel.

The Treet Black Carbon paired together well with my 1940's vintage tech making a smooth efficient duo.

A comfortable 2 pass + pick ups close shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Nivea Men Fresh Moisturising Gel on it's maiden outing...An excellent post shave application.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine. ;)

Stay safe, and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen. 😎

This is the second shave with the ATT S-1 and Polsilver Super Iridium blade. The razor–blade combo was excellent providing me with a nice, smooth, BBS shave. Using the Seaforth soap for the 7th time. Monday I will be testing another soap. Have a great day.
