Razor : Razorock Game Changer.84 with a RR Radio knob handle. Mfg 2018>, tame mid range. Excellent machining + finish for my shave needs. Not a lot of blade feel so I like to use a Kai SS extra wide blade to give a little more blade feel.
Blade : Kai SS (2) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity. This blade is slightly wider than standard Gillette blades by 9/1000 of inch or 4.5/1000 per side. Great blade for milder razors that need a boost.
Soap : Razorock "The Dead Sea", nice addictive fragranced soap with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Bali" 24mm 3band silvertip badger. Great big bloomed knot with softer bristles with a short handle.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Razorock The Dead Sea splash with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : Dial 9.5.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=:a17: Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my RR GC.84 with a Kai SS blade.
