Just an excellent shave. I can’t say that I’ve tried a better Chinese made 3 pc. razor than this one right here. Quality and shave performance is up there with some of the best in the industry.
Great shaves to all….

Some bay rum for tonight. Lather was serviceable but not luxurious. I am curious if the foamy lather is consistent for Captain’s Choice or if I got an off batch.

The Gillette Deluxe was great. I think the Deluxe is one of the best razors out there.
