Growth: 48h
Brush: ŌKU Kesar by P&P - 25mm two band
Soap: razor emporium barber shop
Razor: Game changer 0.69 vs Envoy
Blade: Voskhod
Post: lather face wash, alum, concoction (*), PAA mysterium serum
Passes: 2 - WTG, XTG
Rating: 4.5/5

(*) witch hazle 50ml, 5ml glycerin, tea tree (10), Argan (25), bergamot (10), pachuli (5), Cocunut oil + CBD (5), menthol crystals - (drops)

Nice shave overall though the alum block was vocal on the envoy side. The envoy is certainly not as smooth of a ride. Both sides are equally close.
Post shave feel, the Envoy side feels a little bit soar.

What a splendidly designed razor. Despite the cold and snow, I enjoyed a relaxing and surprisingly close two pass shave! MWF whipped up with Jayaruh Custom #372 into a glistening, slick protective lather that initially left me wondering whether I had a blade in the razor! Talk about smooth! The razor is aptly named, and delivered a shave easily the equal of my Vector, AS-D2 or Silversmith, all great razor’s, but ranging from 4 to 4 1/2 times the price of this little Marvel. BBS shave #2 was bloodless and left me feeling clean, refreshed and oh so very smooooth on both noggin and face.

PREP: Cold water rinse
