Razor: Razorock Wunderbar
Blade: Wizamet

Decent one this morning, wunderbar really is a smooth runner. My only other experience with razorock is the Hawk V3-A which I never gelled with, so this is a nice surprise.

Wonderfully smooth and irritation free (well barring the fact that I have to go to work), hope everyone has a good'un.

Cheers

Swapped blades to the Asco SS. What a difference. Much smoother shave, just as close and a lot less sting off the splash. I've had good results with The Bluebeards Revenge blades in other razors but I guess they aren't so suited to this slant.

Prep: Face wash with Simple face wash
Pre: Bart’s Pre-Shave
Razor: Reggie's Razor - Titan
Blade: Gillette Nacet (1)
Brush: Muhle - Hexagon (Forest Green) -Synthetic
S Cream: ES – Fragrance Free
Post: ES – Fragrance Free ASB

I think this razor is on the right track to give me a brilliant shave. I was apprehensive switching to a sharper blade thinking with it's assertive qualities it will result in a shave too aggressive for me. Quite the contrary. The Nacet's sharpness seemed to be a perfect match for the combination of exposure, geometry and blade gap of the Titan. Two passes and I was left with a very smooth face. I'm already starting to feel sorry to pass this razor on to the next one in line .:)
