Had not heard that one before, very complex flavor! You can hear Beatles, some Stewart/Faces, and a heavy dose of garage band sound, good stuff.

I'm digging the Karve now. This C plate gets me a nice comfortable finish in two passes. Not sure on the CH2 brush though - it may have a bit too much backbone for me.
@jphelan81 - some of this look familiar?
I'm surprised you didn't say they're too modernRazor handle is too long, brush loft is too short, have a wonderful Easter my friend.
I am devastated that my balm didn’t make it into shot Joe but then again it is fair to stay that there are quite a few components to that shave! You will be needing a wide focus lens nextTodays Cold Water Shave Kit - Sunday 4th April 2021

Gillette Sputnik again today, once again an epic shave in the RR GC .84 SB
This Sputnik today has produced a real FFS/BBS shave, the 3 passes were effortless and the blade fell very safe/confident to use, zero nicks and no razor burn
Off now to cut way too much lawn, its all about a ft high, gonna be a killer, my own fault for putting it off
Have a good Sunday all.
