Rating: 8/10 DFS
So far out of the synths in my collection this one is my favorite, slight backbone to it, and the handle feels great working with the lather. Caisson Shaving soap, love the scent and decent slickness to the lather. Barely any stinging from the alum block. I think I'm going to go for use #5 out of the blade since there wasn't any pulling or tugging.
