Gillette advertises made for head shaves but it works extremely well on the face. Grip is outstanding and made from aluminum and chrome. I prefer the regular Fusion 5 blade but this razor came with 2 blade sensitive. Not bade at all.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Excellent shave today. Went back to the Supply SE and Mitchell's Wool Fat. Wonderfully smooth and comfortable shave from this razor. Really impressed with it. Great lather as usual from the MWF built with the Simpson "Chubby" 2 for two passes (+ touch-up) and I finished with Alt-Innsbruck and Armani "Acqua di Gio" EdT

Hope you have a great day. :)

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Very nice but bleary-eyed shave this morning. Got a little too aggressive on the left side of my face and now have a small area of razor burn beside my cheek bone. Oh well.. Lesson learned. Went back to Abbate Y La Mantia and their wonderful "Neroli Siciliano" shave soap. Nice citrus, floral scent with a little hint of woods way in the back. Excellent lather built with the Zenith "Chubby Scrubby" boar brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the RazoRock "Mamba 70" and I finished with Acqua di Parma Colonia" after shave splash "Essenza" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)
