Jayaruh No 67 brush
MWF
Alu.Hawk/ Claymore Handle
Schick Proline [ 7 ]
Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

Changed the Handle on the Alu.Hawk again, and during the Shave I was very pleased at the way the Combo worked. The Shave was very smooth, and though the blade was on its 7th outing, the quality of the finished Shave was really good. I think the Shaving capability of this budget Razor has perhaps been underestimated especially if fitted with a Proline blade. It will be interesting to see how the Alu.General fitted with this handle performs tomorrow, using the MWF too and a slightly younger blade.
