What razor did you use today?

PAA / Ascension Cu

Baby Smooth (Razorock)

I’ve never liked this razor until today. For years it’s been buried away at the back of the cupboard under a pile of soaps. My first shaves with it weren’t very friendly: too much blade feel, not enough weight. I couldn't get comfortable with it. And it was hard to get the blade centered on the head. There was always a hot side and a cold side. All that changed today, though, when I put a Derby Extra blade in it. For reasons unknown to me, this blade just fit. Both sides of the double edge blade were easy and comfortable. Truth be told, I really hate Derby Extra blades in all my other razors. It’s just not sharp enough. But in this Baby Smooth it works a charm.

Razor: Gillette New LC/ CG Hammered
Blade: Wizamet (?)
Brush: Sorrentino Orange Crush/Cashmere
Soap: CFG Easy Street ( Shout out to NurseDave )
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla
Aftershave 2: CFG Easy Street
Fragrance: Acqua Di Gio Profumo

There was really no need for a shave today since I used the Blackbird yesterday.  But a recent trade netted me a CG Level 1 DC and I couldn't wait to give it a try.  This is such a smoooooth and efficient razor, it could easily be a daily driver.  Looking forward to many more shaves with this beauty!
