Greetings,
A nice relaxing 3 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report.
Since i've re-introduced myself to the Williams Mug Shaving Soap, i've had some wonderful slick lathers, and a excellent post shave feeling to my face.
The yaqi 'DOC' head on first appearance looks extremely aggressive, but looks are very deceiving sometimes,it's a wonderfully smooth non-aggressive head, however like any razor either aggressive or non-aggressive, if not treated with respect it'll bite you.
Out of all the frankenrazors i've mixed & matched this is one of my favourites..The weight of the schmidt handle gives it a good heft,this could easily be my daily shave razor as it's non-aggressive, but at the same time gives a comfortable DFS/near BBS, and seems to like every blade choice i've matched it up so far... What more could i ask for.
Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Boots ~ Freshwood A/S balm.
Enjoy your sunday, ladies & gentlemen.
