Wedding Anniversary Shave. 11 Years!!!

I found a pack the pack of Personnas at the back of the bathroom cabinet. I think Paul (Connuaght) had sent them as a freebie with an order, so I thought I'd give one a go. Mistake. I got halfway through my first pass and had to swap it for a Swede, as the Personna just wasn't sharp enough. The Swede however, as always, felt perfect for me.

A nice smooth shave - I've smelt that smell somewhere before (in a shaving soap - but I can't put my finger on it just now)... more thoughts as they come to me (in Dr. Henk's thread)

Kent/MWF
Futur
Red Personna (D2)
Harvard A/S

Cranked the Futur up to 4 today and remembered an old saying 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'. Yesterdays shave on 3 was fine, today I got weepers and irritation so back to 3 it is :)

Wanted to try SA's Warm Spice again because I really wanted it to work but I got the same results, it obviously doesn't respond to willpower :(
