This is the third time I've done a two pass shave with the Weck, and have avoided bleeding. I'll take that as a win.

Super happy to have the GC back. While Blades Grim as a company is questionable I still love the way this soap smells. It's like toasted marshmallows, and it makes a good lather. This was an amazing shave. 10 of 10 would highly recommend.

• Prep: Splash of hot water
• Brush: Moar Boar!
• Razor: Weck Sextoblade
• Blade: Kismet
• Lather: ZM The Watchman (sample from J33p)
• Post Shave: Lucky Tiger Splash
• Post Shave: Proraso Sensitive Balm

In all this was a pretty good shave. I spent a bunch more soap, and time making lather than in previous shaves and ended up with a much thicker lather. I'm also getting better with the Weck, as this is the second time I've done both a North to South, and South to North shave with it, and remained nick free.

I aim to please....
