SOTD Monday 10.05.20
Pre: Hot Water Splash
Soap: Tabac!
Brush: Rudy Vey M7 style w/24 mm fan
Bowl: CC Ceramic
Razor: Charcoal Goods Victorian in brass, w/Level 3 SS plate
Blade: Personna “Red” (2)
Post: CC “Venture” AS; Lather & Wood balm
Two passes: WTG/ATG, w/touch ups
Result: DFS/BBS.
This is an aggressive plate and it was my first use of a CG Lvl 3. I mostly tended toward riding the cap, and completed the two passes and touch ups w/o cuts, nicks, or irritation. That’s a win for me, so I stopped short of chasing BBS on my neck. However, I have no doubt the CG Lvl. 3 could easily achieve BBS with two passes in more confident and experienced hands. I look forward to continuing to improve my technique with this excellent razor. Though I don’t want every shave to be demanding, I want to develop good shaving skills. The more aggressive razors seem to be the best approach because they literally demand better technique.
Happy Saves to All.
