The closest shave I've had since I turned 16, when I started shaving frequently enough to require a cartridge razor. Nicked all over the place, but so very glad I started this straight razor business.
 
Saturday

Men-u shave creme
Men-u boar bristle brush
"E5" Injector
Personna Blade
Harvard A/S

Second time I've tried this creme and I'm not sure I like the menthol.

Dunno how many shaves I've used this blade for but I get the feeling it was one too many, got a good shave out of it but I reckon it's time for a new one. I'll try to keep track of this one :D

Still loving the Harvard, I haven't used anything else since I got it :D

I think this blade isn't as sharp as it ought to be. it doesn't seem to remove hair as the Dovo does. Hmm. Otherwise not a bad shave. Several passes required.
