This was the Prototype on loan to me. Geometry is same as production and I think the gap is .23 I think at least a .40 would be more to my liking but a great smooth and close shave. Surprised me how smooth it was. May do a video tomorrow with it. Thanks

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
The word for today and the rest of the week is "mentholated". Say it with me, kids! Men-tho-lat-ed. Hottest temps of the year (so far) are expected through the weekend. Air temps will be in the upper 90's ~ low 100's with feels-like temps from 110° ~ 115°. Went back to C.O. Bigelow's shave cream but applied a generous helping of Phoenix Shaving's "Ice Cube" preshave soap as well. Wonderfully frigid! Great lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Mint Chip" HD ST badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the new Badlands Shaving Cocobolo DE and I finished with Epsilon "Amber" after shave splash and Acqua di Parma "Colonia" EdP.
Hope you have a great day.
