RazoRock Game Changer
GSB(3)
Italian Barber Amici
Maseto Shaving Classic (30mm Finest Fan, Cruiser Class)
This morning I had my last shave with the Game Changer before sending it off to the next person in the passarround. I knew after the first shave that I would be buying one and this shave confirms it. 3 passes, BBS, no touchups. Once I get one of these in the den it will probably be my #1 modern razor, dethroning the Baby Smooth.

Razor: Blackbird Machined SB
Blade: GSB (3)
Soap: WSP Neroli
Aftershave: Chatillon Lux Fourth & Pine
Brush: Paladin Chief
Thoughts: Second time trying out the Blackbird, and I am still impressed as I was yesterday. It seems that my ideal level of aggression (for stainless steel razors, that is) lies between the "medium" and "aggressive". While the Timeless Bronze OC did not work for me - the Blackbird, Paradigm have delivered excellent shaves. Razors on the horizon: Wolfman WR1 0.67 DC, Charcoal Goods SS Level 2.
