Today to carry on with Blackland week i chose the OC base plate for the Blackbird.
Brian's Signature soap performed flawlessly, a wonderful lather in no time with the Jayaruh #291, i really like this scent and i can recommend the soap to everyone if you have not tried it, i am sure Brian sells a travel size and these are great for trying different scents.
Using the same angle as i did with the SB earlier this week i completed an excellent 1st pass WTG using short strokes while supporting the razor weight, again there is plenty of blade feel, however, its not scary, its manageable.
I decided on a mixed XTG/ATG pass to clean up. This fellow is very, very efficient for my whiskers. BBS with a great post shave feeling from the soap.
No blood spilled, however, i do have 2 x small grazes just under the chin, complacency or over confidence, i am not sure. All sorted by a nice post shave routine.
Enjoy your Day All.
