A SHAVE OF FIRSTS

Today's shave consisted of some new items for me. First is the Oliworks M3teorite razor, then the Oumo ST-2 brush, Dorco Prime blade and a new bowl, which I have reviewed a short time ago, the NortonCustomDesign Shave Bowl on Etsy.
The M3teorite I received is a blue cerakote. I used the medium plate to start with and will test the mild and aggressive plates soon. The razor is an absolute HOME RUN. The weight, balance, smoothness and efficiency are superb. I will post a review on a different thread. The brush contains the new ST-2 knot by Oumo. It is an exceptionally soft brush. It built a lather easily, I have already posted a review on this on the Oumo ST-2 test knot thread. The Dorco Prime blade was smooth and sharp, just an excellent blade. With all the new items, I received an excellent shave in spite of some face irritation from the other day. Today was a 2 pass shave with 2 days growth. WTG/ATG.
**PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PICTURE OF THE RAZOR IS MY FAULT. THERE ARE NO BLEMISHES OR SCRATCHES OR CHIPS ON IT.
