I enjoyed this even more than the first shave! This really is a great everyday shaver, yes the head could be slightly thinner and it could be slightly lighter but it all just works together so well! It’s well balanced and shaves nice and closely, much better than you’d think with a head design such as this. I can’t wait to take it up a notch with a sharp blade but I’m impressed. I can only find the aluminium still for sale which is a shame as the steel gives a great shave and has a lovely finish.

Difficult to fault this shave. I used another excellent blade and the razor and its companions got me an excellent result.

I am thinking about using a good but not great blade next (in my humble opinion). Something middle of the road. I don't tend to keep blades I don't like so I might try something that I've found to be more razor-sensitive like a Treet. I've had some great results and some average ones from the Dura Sharp.

After a disappointing lather yesterday from the Mitchell’s Wool Fat I thought I would try something a little more reliable. The Extro is always happy to perform, even though it is now little more than a coating around the edges of the jar. A superb lather was created with the aid of the T3 and a very good two pass shave resulted in a smooth face. The Treet blade has provided five good shaves. All change tomorrow :).
