This Tiger blade is definitely on the sharp side. I used the .84 OC plate on my Game Changer and the blade feel represented a bit less smooth than I had yesterday on the New Improved.

Funny thing when I got MOTI I initially compared it directly to Opulence which was a mistake as if you smell one of these then immediately smell the other the second one gets canceled out in the old olfactory receptors. Because of this anomaly I initially thought MOTI to have a scent strength of a 1 LOL!!
Great shave.

Sun 23 SOTD
Soap Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic
Brush Yaqi 24mm Silvertip
Razor Yaqi AC Aluminum
Blade Shick Proline P-30 (UK) 2nd
Post & Aftershaves Alum + Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Hyaluronic + TGS Abysso
Another excellent soap! Intoxicating scent, thickly creamy and slick lather...awesome!! The brush is very good for face lathering!
Shave with razor paired with this blade was very good. Initially abit skippy but once found the correct angle...it became very smooth and comfortable in 3passes without any issues for a mostly bbs finish. Aftershaves were fantastic!
