This razor has relegated the rest of my small collection to the subs bench. I can see the others being transfer listed at this rate, with more vintage Gillettes being the new transfer targets. It even allows a comfortable ATG pass with a Derby! BBS.

I love the way this razor shaves, but even though it says extra hollow to me looking at the grind I would say half or even a quarter hollow ground, makes no difference really it's still a superb razor, two pass shave BBS.

Pre hot towel + De Verguldehand shaving cream + Artisan TGN Finest 26 mm. brush + Gillette Contour with Soltech Feather #2 + Thayers Medicated + Mennen Grand Large with La Chinata balm
Second use of this Feather cartridge, this time I have found it a bit irritating with some nicks, don't know why... Anyway I got a close shave so I'll continue testing it.
Cheers!

Hot shower
Hot flannel
Irisch moos cream scuttle lathered
Sipsons Tulip 1 super badger brush
Merkur Progress long handle set at 2.5
Vintage Perma-sharp made in Scotland (3)
Cold rinse
Witch hazel
Irisch moos aftershave balsam
Lovely smooth and comfortable shave. First time out with the Tulip brush I wondered if the handle would be a tad short for scuttle lathering. I was pleased to find it usefull and no difficulties at all with the scuttle. Last shave with the Scottish Perma-sharp a good blade (thanks to Hairsuite).
