Razor Yaqi Slant
Shave with this aggressive razor paired with the blade and a shim...was good and smooth in 3passes without issues for a between bbs to dfs finish.

As I said in my SOTD post, the part of the handle I like to grip gets somewhat slippery when it is wet.
Razor RazoRock G37 Slant
The shave with the razor paired with this blade was perfection! So easy so smooth and so comfortable in 3passes for a dolphin smooth finish without any issues. This is definitely one of my top-top de blades.

The shave with this razor paired with the blade and a shim was acceptable...3passes for a dfs result and 2 weepers. Blade chatter is much reduced with the shim but not entirely gone...

This razor head is sort of awkward and clunky, but I still like it.
Razor Fatip OC Slant
Shave with razor paired with this blade was very good! So smooth and very comfortable in 3passes for a mostly bbs finish. Unfortunately 2 red dots...
This razor is good, blade is so rigidly held in place, considered mild for me & quite efficient but 1 thing I don't like is the dang blade alignment issue.

The top plate of the razor head seemed to be losing some of its pattern to fading, so I asked Sean about it. On his recommendation, I polished it, wiped it with alcohol, and baked it in the oven for about 20 minutes. That restored the pattern nicely.
