a close shave, but with a few weepers and a bit sore around the neck. dont know whether i was using too much pressure, or if it was a dodgy blade but had to use the alum block for the first time in a while, hey ho.
 
pjgh, See what I can do. It's about the same length as the Muhle R89 Grande and the Merkur 38c Barber pole. Similar weight to the 38c and not quite a fat as the Muhle but heavier that it.

Somewhat sore today, so didn't push for perfection. 'Just enough' is good enough, and better to walk away to shave another day, rather than kebab my face.
