My straight is in the hospital getting honed so I chose the Ikon 102 slant. This razor just works for me. It always gives me a wonderful 2 pass BBS.
Ikon 102/Rapira plat lux
OSP Fougere
Ferdman 26mm 2 band finest.
One of the best shaves of the year for me. Smooth as silk and kissable for midnight.
Wishing everyone a Happy New Year.

Once adjusted to the narrow cutting angle I coasted to a pretty flawless shave with Mr B and C, the head shave with the C was particularly impressive. It just made a big jump in the pecking order. I think they're both armed with Plus Plats on second or third use.

Thought about using Straight for this morning's shave but thought better of it [emoji33]So out with the Mongoose and new to me Feather Proguard blade, the shave was BBS after two passes and apart from removing the head of a spot drama free. [emoji106]
So wishing everyone a prosperous New Year
