yes! great shave and great pairing of chypres. I reckon I should go back a bit to bowl lathering, to left alone my skin of exfoliating xD
 
My shave tonight had a touch of Master Chef about it tonight - a bit if slice and dice.
Beautiful straight point razor "but" forgot to dull the tip and caught my cheek twice. The blade was so sharp that only till I caught a glimpse of the claret on both cheeks did I realise I had marred my youthful good looks :)

All round though a great shave only just a bit closer in a couple of places than I'd prefer.

Haha, I'm learning the same lesson. Tend to forget to dull the tip and end up slicing myself. You know it's sharp when you don't even feel it.
