Good video. I have only used Supers in the RX and haven't gotten a good shave. Maybe I should try a guarded blade.

Thanks for watching John. The shave turned out to be about 70%+ BBS, with DFS on the rest. I loved the heft of the razor; excited to continue with it for the week!

Glad to see it being loved. I just lives in a drawer at my house.
 
Sorry it took so long all, long day:

Shave 7 of 2019:

Today's Gear: Colonial General Brass, Feather Pro blade (1), RR Big Bruce synth, Williams soap (modern; as preshave), Harry’s Eucalyptus shave cream soap, generic witch hazel, and Pitralon Classic AS to finish!

Video is up!

 
Oh mercy. I accidentally double clicked on something and looked what happened. A screen full of Noir!
 
It interesting they don't produce that razor at all any more. Seems like they could just give the specs to a machine shop and start making sales. But I'm glad you cleared up the love for the razor vs your wife. Hope the recovery is going well.

Thank Dave! I’m clueless on that as well. They could have been making some sales at least during this interim period.
