Buongiorno a tutti e buona " antivigilia natalizia": 23 of December....Xmas is coming i hope in every hart...
By the way, this morning, i took out from his box my Tradere 2nd Gen. N.440.
The handle as everyone here knows, is still one of the best on the market even if more than ten years have passed since Richard Mason realized this razor.
I have to say the head is really heavy and you have just to put it on your face and "drag" it without any pressure;two times and i've got apretty close BBS with a Feather blade.

Razor: Gratiot Krect Spiral Curve Slant
Blade: Wizamet
Brush: Graydog Cocobolo/Synbad
Soap: Sir Henry's Black Velvet
AS 1: Witch Hazel
AS 2: Nivea Deep
Fragrance:
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,509
Stupendous shave today from both software and hardware. The sample of Black Velvet (Black Pepper and Vetiver Scent) made a ton of lather from a very small amount that was put into the lather bowl. The lather was creamy soft, provided great cushion/glide and slickness with a subtle scent that was there to enjoy without being overpowering. The razor never disappoints me. While I'm not sold on the slant being a better shaver because of a gullitine effect or anything, this razor just gives a smooth and micro-close shave and has always been a favorite. It's a favorite because of the shave it gives, the scarcity of them and the cool design of it since it is not the typical screw apart 3 piece design. 1 degree and I can hear the wind howling outside about it's power and the windchill effect ( -25 to -35 I'm told till 4 pm today) it is producing so I will sit here and sip my coffee while enjoying the silence. Have a great day everyone and stay warm as I know this blast is hitting many worse than us !
