This razor was a gift. I am lucky enough to already have a French #77 2-piece RFB, so I know this is a great shaver; but I was excited to finally take this out for a spin. Not disappointed at all!

Love the scent of this soap & the matching splash...
This razor is definitely keener after being refreshed on the 0.1um balsa and smoother after stropping on the Kanayama. 3passes for a bbs-ccs finish. The balsa sharpness...in combination with the comfort of natural edge is just what I need...

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a great evening.

Great shave this morning. Love the scent of this soap / splash. Perfect cooler-weather choice. It had been a while since I last used it and wanted to remedy that today. Wonderfully slick and cushioning base for two passes (+ touch-up) with the 60's "Psycho Tech" and I finished with the matching AS tonic and spray of YSL "La Nuit de L'Homme" EdP.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Need to take it easy with this razor compared to the Flat bottom Tech and President. 18 hours after the last shave I wasn’t feeling any stubble WTG. Still went for a 2 pass shave today and feeling very smooth.
 
Since all the cool kids were using Jazz Club - and the soap and AS literally arrived today - well done @Dragonsbeard !

I think that’s the first official SOTD photo with Blue Note. Thank you for sharing!
