Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
EDRIO#96 RazoRock Lupo
Gillette Platinum
Epsilon White Horse (26mm, Frigate Class)
Stirling Glacial Lemony Orange soap and AS

I was in the mood for as big dose of menthol for this menthol Monday and it's sure hard to beat GLO. First shave with the RR Lupo, the first thing that I noticed what that it has a huge window of available angle adjustment. I started off with too steep of and angle and the shave was a bit tuggy. This might not have been an issue with a sharper blade, but I've always felt that the Gillette Platinum was not quite as sharp as some of the other PPI offerings. Needless to say, once I adjusted to a shallower angle (ride the cap) the shave smoothed out tremendously. After two passes all I needed was a bit of touch up to bring the baby home. This razor is deceptively efficient. I wouldn't say that it is more then medium aggressive in terms of blade feel but in terms of efficiency it competes with the likes of the ATT H2 and Blackland Blackbird IMO and perhaps might even be more efficient then the Game Changer .84. I will be curious to see how this razor performs with other blades.

Have a great day my friends!
