Maaaaaannnnnn what an enjoyable shave.

This razor came back from its vacation to California, and I've been missing it! @snooting@wetshav.ing wasn't the biggest fan of the razor which just goes to show faces are different. I wanted to see the state it was in without doing any chromium oxide or honing, so I stropped it 100x. It felt great! I got a nice, close shave. I love how silent it is compared to hollow ground razors. I love the soft feel of the steel. I got a bit too steep with the angle in a couple of spots but came out clean.

Tres Matres -- holy moly. I've had a sample of this soap before and loved it but never jumped on a tub. Snooting offered to send this my way along with the aftershave and oh boy, how I've missed this brand. The scents are so unique and the soap base is incredible.

I loved every second of this shave.
