Hi all,
I had another lovely Shave Tonight with the Alpha Shaving Stubble vs Steel Guido razor using the safety bar base plate this time.
I found the the Guido was very slightly more efficient with the open comb base plate (my opinion only) but as for smoothness
it has to go to the safety bar base plate I am in agreeance with @lu20vt on that.
As I stated previously @Errol will no doubt do a full review on this DE razor.

One pass WTG/AGT Done! no nicks no touch ups no worries.:)

Finished of nicely with Ogallala bay rum and sweet orange splash.
Enjoy your shave.
Cheers.
