Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
EDRIO#97 RazoRock Switch
Shark Platinum
WWB Talleyrand (26mm, Frigate Class)
Stirling For Him soap and AS
Fantastic shave this morning with the RazoRock Switch. After comparing the Switch to the Lupo I can confidently say that these two razors share the same head design. The only difference being that the switch has a thicker base plate to accommodate the side screw for the alternate handle configuration. When in"safety razor"mode that screw post can get in the way in certain areas, especially under the nose. Not really that big of deal since you can just flip the razor over, just something to be aware of. The Lupo was more nimble due to it's smaller head but otherwise the shave was identical. Revisiting Shark blades after initially disliking them early on in my wet shaving career. My impressions of them now are that they are very sharp but less smooth then my favorite Russian blades. We'll see how shave #2 is on them. Have a great day my friends!
