After a few months' hiatus while growing the beard, I wanted the first week back to be smooth and irritation-free. I settled on the Proraso sensitive and a razor I know to be light and efficient with minimal blade feel. While many razors in the den could meet that criteria, the Tatara was the tool of choice.
