This holiday Monday morning in Barcelona, Semogue 830 and Ach.Brito Lavender cream; Edwin Jagger DE89 Head with a Russian Super Iridium blade from my friend Milo, in his fifth (and last) use; old Floid aftershave; I thought were a good complement to the today's star-shave.
And the star-shave. My old "U1 12/15" of Raphael, his first job, which only made 28 units.
After release these last days the "U2 12/15" and "Godzilla 15/15", I'm back to the first handle.
The razor was behaving like with U2 (since they are equal in dimension), performing better than it does with its Barley handle. More stable, more finisher, but without losing the smoothness of this head geometry associated with the great Russian blade. A clean, perfect and smooth cut. No surprises, no shocks, predictive, reliable.
I can certify that this handle has much improved the final result. The dimensions and proportions are good. It handles very well. The weight is correct and well distributed. You know that I shave in the shower in the tub with running water and wet hands. The grip is phenomenal. The feel is smooth, without burrs, without ribs, but very good grip. No slips with a wet hand or soap dripping fingers.
And the good news for Badger&Blade fellows: My friend Rafael told me that in the coming weeks will produce some handles for you. There will be few lucky guys who can enjoy them with pleasure.
Konstantinos, framed to perfection!
