Razor: Gillette Aristocrat (Made in England, i have the red travel case too, bought it last summer in France in a small village).
Blade: Treet Platinum (6)
This aristocrat really is a great razor, very smooth but still a close shave, quite amazing, the Treet is losing sharpness though, i think its time for a new blade.

Razor: Blackland Blackbird Lite (72)
Blade: Gillette Perma-Sharp (1)
Pre-shave: Hot shower
Brush: RazoRock Plissoft Monster Synthetic Shaving Brush - 26mm
Lather: Stirling Soap Naked & Smooth
Aftershave: Cold water rinse; Stirling Soap Co Unscented Post Shave Balm
Shave #1 with Nacet new blade
No nicks; No irritation; Very close; smooth; DFS+ shave. The Nacet appears to be less sharp than the Perma-Sharp Super on the first shave. The Nacet was almost tugging ATG on the first shave. A little buffing was needed on the upper lip. I would prefer the Perma-Sharp based on first shave results.
Shave #2 with Perma-Sharp new blade
No nicks; No irritation; Very close; Very smooth; DFS+ shave. A pleasant shave. The Perma-Sharp Super is definitely sharper than the Nacet on the first shave. I would prefer the Perma-Sharp based on first shave results.

Great shave. I really like the R94 handle. I haven't had any issues with grip and I like the thickness of it along with the length and weight. But it's not to heavy.
