365 (Or More) Shaves in 2025

Today is 04-05-2025 is # 95 of 2025.

Razor: Goodfellas' Smile - Bayonetta
Blade: 7 AM Plus Hi Platinum. DAY # ONE USEAGE.
Bowl: N/A
Soap/Cream: Cremo - Refreshing Mint, smells is great.
Brush/Instrument: Fingers/Omega Boar
Extra Stuff: Witch Hazel

Still using my Goodfellas' Smile Bayonetta today this Razor is a Rock Star. Shave was three passes, with, across, & against the grain, using a Almost NEW FRESH - 7 AM Plus Hi Platinum, some Blade feel but just feedback, Shave went as easy as 1, 2, 3, Blade is Super Sharp, and, Efficient. Today was DAY # ONE for using this Blade, came out of my Orphan Blade Ziplock. Blade sent message, aka feedback it was working good today, it was loud talking, and clear.

Shave today was Dam Fine Shave but did not achieving perfection rating, would be 9.999 +. Results were Darn Good because I payed a lot of attention to Technique, reaped rewards, of DFS for doing so. I do not & never will chase BBS, do but still got great Shave. This is an Ultra Heavy Weight Razor at 3.49 Ounces, Handle is nice & long so it like having baseball bat in hand. Last observation about the Goodfellas' Smile Bayonetta Razor is it Clamp Down Blade so there is NO Blade Movement or Blade Chatter this is a flipping excellent shaving tool.

Shave number 95
365 shaves (or more) in 2025
SV Saturday

Razor:
Muhle Rocca R94
Blade: Treet Classic (3)
Brush: Muhle Rocca R94 STF
Soap: SV Opuntia
Post Shave: L'Oreal Men Hydra Creme
A/S: Davidoff Cool Water

Tonight SV Saturday saw Opuntia take centre stage lathered with the Rocca STF. I loaded the Treet blade into the Rocca and shaved away achieving a very close shave, though I fear that is more to do with the exceptional performance of SV rather than the performance of the Treet Classic blade.

The Enders (with Hendrix adapter to allow injector blade use) is a really cool razor. Must be used shallow. Not as effective as my best razors but, when used correctly, it provides an excellent, comfortable shave. :001_wub:
