Above at 10-11 o’clock is an original H&S.  I’m polishing some of my things today as I was reunited with my shave gear after 2 months, lol.  FYI, my fingerprints, dust/polish residue is everywhere here...

It’s my opinion the Polish is a premium Mirror Polish.  It’s not James DuFour, but you’re not spending $650-$750 here.  That’s a different purchase. For $265 you’re looking at exceptional polishing, it’s NOT a budget polish.  Do you want jewelry grade overall?  It will cost $200-$250 more. 

Keep the pics coming, guys. Beautiful.

I contacted Shane after my less than stellar first shave and he basically told me there is no secret to using the Tradere and suggested I change blades again and give it another shot. I decided to load up the razor with the supplied Personna blade. I didn’t have as much stubble as I did yesterday when I began the shave but switching the blade made a huge difference.

The shave was just as smooth as it was yesterday but was more efficient. It was so smooth, I decided to add an ATG pass which is something I almost never do. The ATG pass was just as smooth as the other passes and now I am rocking an amazing BBS shave with ZERO irritation.

I am a daily shaver (M-F) due to work and my facial hair grows very fast. If I work an off duty job in the evenings, I have to shave again before going back to work. My plan is to get a couple of days growth going and run her again!

My “usual” routine with a new razor is a blade selection from the TOP down; FEATHER first, and then my selection becomes very clear.  FEATHER sets that bar for me.  

That PERSONNA Shane supplied..... LOVE.

My photography skills are Mehhhh, trying to give you Gents images of your requests.  These macro are tough, grrrrr

I don't get along well with long heavy handles for my head shave and find the Tradere awkward in handling for that task. My polished Sabre handle works much better and still looks pretty sharp.

You head shave with the OC?  You are a brave man!

No issue with exposure/gap, I'm used to aggressive razors, the only challenge is weight/balance.
