Atelier Durdan No 7 Passaround - Saturday Morning Luxury Shave Edition - .7 plate-Nacet blade

Only one shave in, but my initial impression is I love this razor. I chose the .7 plate as I like to start in the middle. 

So smooth and efficient. The .7 plate put me in mind of a Karve Overlander but twice the efficiency. I did not detect siginificant blade feel, just smooth and comfortable shaving. I could have called it quits after the WTG pass. I did a light ATG pass and found I was BBS. The stubborn jawline and side corners of the neck were smooth. No secondary buffing necessary. 

Shaving the dome was just as efficient. Head shaving requires a little more buffing to clear the solar panel, and this was no exception. However, two passes with light touch up on traditional problem spots provided far more efficiency than most razors.

I like to set aside "personal indulgence time" for the Saturday Morning Luxury Shave. My only "disappointment" was I was done much earlier than expected
