Close shave today but neck is a little sore. These blades are definitely sharp enough but not the smoothest. I don’t mind as it gave me a BBS result. Will use this blade for another shave or two. With a lengthy lathering prep beforehand things should go well.

The second day with my pre-war Tech loaded with a Wizamet Super Iridium blade. The brush is my Zenith Manchurian brush. This brush makes loading lather a simple task. The lather was excellent as was the shave. A nice BBS shave. Have a good day.
