2 truly amazing shaves with the Blackland Sabre - L1 - I made a detrmined effort to wean myself off of the Seygus Zeppelin v2 - decided I needed a change from DE blades and opted for a GEM blade.
It's been a long time since I have shaved with the Sabre - muscle memory kicked in - just like riding a bike. A lovely 3 pass shave WTG, and XTG (L-R and R-L). BBS finish (withour trying) with no issues to report.
I really enjoy the post shave skin feel of the Jack Black shave cream; that combined with the D.R. Harris Pink Aftershave - a traditional counter balance to the modern Blackland Gem razor - this combination felt simply divine.
Wishing everyone a good weekend when that comes.
Chris
