Two passes, nice result. After using straight razors, a quality tool like this WCS razor makes shaving child's play.

Another nice close smooth shave from the Game Changer. After using this razor for a solid two weeks now I can tell you that top me it is definitely on the mild side and skin stretching is a must to get the close finish that I'm looking for. Some may find this statement to be heretical but I think I might actually prefer the Mamba to the Game Changer, and I definitely prefer the Baby Smooth to both of them. If I'm looking for a more aggressive razor in the RazoRock camp with more blade feel the MJ-90A has me covered. I don't find the Game Changer to be any more efficient or aggressive feeling then my Merkur 34c and honestly if you aren't paying attention to technique and skin stretching you probably wont be ending up with a shave that has the closeness that your looking for. I can tell you that several times these past two weeks I had areas that weren't as closely shaven as the rest of my face due to what I can only assume was caused by a lapse in angle control. Hopefully when Joe releases some more aggressive base plates this razor will really shine.
