A very rare outing for the Focus R48, i really like the look and design of the razor, however, i do not use it as recommended as putting pressure on the head just feels "Alien" to me, instead i find the angle where the blade cuts and use that angle, which is quite steep, does it work? Hell yeah!
I also use a loose lather as the head can struggle to clear the lather, especially if using as recommended.
I actually prefer the Razorock ECO shave wise.
A nice 2 pass shave and touch up on the whirlpools leaving smooth and clean and ready for the day ahead.

Anyway like Brian @Palmolive fox i am also out for my 2nd vaccine this afternoon, cannot wait to get it done.
Enjoy the Weekend All, and remember :-
Stay safe and enjoy your day. We are not out of this yet.

My Saturday setup (with the Mekur slant and a 7 O’clock Yellow as this week’s blade of choice), it made for a nice three-pass BBS shave. Have a good start to the Bank Holiday weekend, folks.
