The EJ limes & pomegranate shaving cream created a slick protective lather in a short space of time.

A very enjoyable 3 pass +pick ups BBS shave with no errors to report.

A lovely shave this morning. The Treet Classic was very smooth and sharp. I could have stopped after 2 passes.

Razor Yaqi DLC
Blade Shark Super Stainless 3rd
Post & Aftershave
Ice Water + Special Thayers Mix
Hyaluronic + Aqua Velva Ice Cool
Excellent cream, bowl and brush combo resulting in a satisfying lather. Creamy and slick. Pleasant mild scent.
Shave with razor paired with blade was nicely smooth and comfortable. Blade still ok. 3+1 multiple passes without issues although later can see that there's 2 creepers. Postshave icy rinse followed by Thayers was great on a hot day. Rating today 9.3/10

First use of my very recently acquired Carbon Shaving Co Ti-Carbon handle from BST @motto to supplement my Cx 316L SS head

Although the razors balance tips towards the head with the light handle,
the shaving was as silky smooth as I'm used to with my other Carbon Shaving razor.

Occam-Hiram Commander / Plate 2
Kai CTM-Pink [ 1 ]
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

I have from the start used this Razor with a No3 plate, the Shaves are generally very good but sometimes a bit harsh. I have now fitted it with a No2 plate which is less aggressive, so today tried it out for the first time with a Kai Blade. The Shave was very smooth and comfortable and the finish very good, can now see this Razor being good for Daily Shaves, so will now try it for a few Days.
