Razor:
SNMIRN Adjustable (Baby Futur)
Blade: Kai (10)
Brush: CVS Blade Boar Brush, 24mm
Pre-Shave: CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser Bar, Cremo Classic Shave Cream
Cream: Nivea Sensitive Calm Liquid Shaving Cream
Aftershave: Ice water, Lucky Tiger After Shave, Nivea Sensitive Post Shave Balm
Growth: 49 hours
Passes: WTG (8), XTG (7), ATG (6)
Rating: 9.5/10

Results: The Baby Futur is my first adjustable safety razor. I like it. Delivers a nice smooth shave. Efficient with a sleek design that has good heft (110 grams), surprisingly grippy handle & magnets that hold the blade & cap securely. Enriched with Vitamin E & Hemp Seed Oil, I was able to easily face lather this new Nivea Shaving cream. After today's DFS result, it's end of the line for my 1st Kai blade. Binned it. The Kai blade lived up to its winning reputation. Sharp & smooth. For my 10 shaves I achieved 7 BBS & 3 DFS results. Stellar performance!!!

Love this soap... an aromatic scent and a rich creamy slick lather...
Somehow...just 1 minor change and the past few SR shaves are just getting better. Today is the best so far. Many thanks to all for the tips and advice in various SR threads & posts. This razor's edge feels really sweet...buttery smooth in 3passes for a mixed bbs/dfs & ccs/sas finish. It's definitely my technique to be improved. The aftershaves were just terrific!
