lovely early morning shave. very smooth razor and I got pretty close even after the first pass. thick, protective lather and I love the smell of sandalwood. I find you need to use a bit more with proraso to get a great lather but I also had lather left over so I'll try using a bit less water instead.
the blade was part of a pif and was in a plain wrapper but it seems to be a crystal. I won't be buying more but I really liked it these last couple of shaves. will have a look at the sharpness charts for something comparable. it made the yaqi mellon perform pretty well and I'm looking forward to seeing how it does in the R41 next.
I dropped a couple of menthol crystals into this tai winds aftershave so it's lovely and refreshing and I'm wide awake and ready for the day.
