I can say that I've had the best shave ever this morning. It all started with the arrival of my birth razor of all things - a '76 long handled Super Adjustable. After cleaning it up, polishing it, and setting it to seven, I loaded it up with a Personna blade that I had already used for the past three shaves. I loaded up my mug with a rich warm lather of TOBS Sandalwood and after a moment of enjoying the scent, I got started on my three pass routine of WTG, XTG, and AGT. No irritation or nicks - none. I got a smooth BBS shave out of it and just thoroughly enjoyed it. I splashed on my favorite aftershave and all I felt was a cool tingle - no burning at all. The shaving gods were truly smiling on me this morning.
