I have to agree, efficiently outstanding and smooth, the Karve for the price to performance ratio is hard to beat.SOTD Monday 10 September 2018
Pre-shave: Warm shower, Wright's Cold Tar Soap and cold water splash.
Soap: Cella Crema da Barba AllOlio Di Mandorla.
Brush: Simpsons The Duke 2 Pure Badger.
Bowl: Streight from the puck .
Razor: Karve - C: Plate.
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (Day 5).
Post: Floid Vigoroso.
I had my first run out with the Karve on Thursday 06 Sept - for me and I appreciate that YMMV, this was one of the smoothest shaves with a DE - each shave loaded with a Gillette Silver Blue.
The two run outs were a 2 pass shave - DFS + BBS - finish - no issues to report. Saturday's shave was a three pass - again no issues. I only needed a 1 pass shave on the Sunday, before going to see Simple Minds. Today, a slight hurry to get out the door, 1 pass shave and I am DFS +.
I loved today's shave, the Karve feels excellent: safe, smooth and dependable. The Cella was stunning - great protective lather in next to no time, finishing off with the Floid Vigoroso was divine - plesant tingle on the skin, no burn and great scent.
I say this with the gratest respect - the Karve is possible the best DE razor I have used - its performance is outstanding - I have not yet tried the E plate I also ordered, as the C plate leaves my skin feeling great.
The Karve could easily be a daily driver, easily.
All the best,
Chris
