First was a couple of strokes on setting 3, then I turned it up to 5 to complete the first pass and see how aggressive/efficient the razor was and it knocked off the growth effortlessly. Then to see how efficient the combo was, went back to setting 3 but went against the grain - no weepers or issues and was left with a shave good enough for a day in the office. Went across the grain on the third pass on setting 1 and ended up with an excellent shave (probably my best to date) and the face feel was superb.@wooky114 , how did you get on with the razor?

Sotd - Thursday 14/12

scent - Creed Tabarome.
Result - just fine.
An early bath from work today - and it wasn't that cold - no need to use menthol - so a nice tobacco themed shave. It's a scent profile I really enjoy. The Schick O type is perfect for a totally safe tidy up before going out. I couldn't imagine how anybody could hurt themselves with this razor. Quietly, stealthily - this is becoming one of my favourite shavers. It's neither one thing or the other -the handle says cart - but the blade is single edge. So - well shaven - and off to the pub to meet my best mate in the west end of Glasgow. The Ubiquitous Chip - if any of you know the city. Home of an unconscionably large amount of draft Furstenberg lager - I like to think I'm a responsible citizen - I did my bit to drain the lake. The pub was a nightmare - it's that time of year - people that only drink once a year and probably shouldn't. I smelled nice according to the drunk office night out women next to me. All bingo wings and muffin top. God bless Creed - you do get something for your £200 plus quid a bottle. If not what you intended. I escaped safely - enjoy your shaves one and all. Yours - I.
Good picture and setup with a great looking brush Clint. Happy Friday.
