; Pleasant shave, I’ve been rotating only 2 razors for the last few weeks, but thought I’d try The Guido today with a Feather blade. Well a very pleasant 2 pass n touch up BBS. I believe (and still do) a .95 plate (and a Ti Guido) * hint, hint, bloody hint* is required but with the Feather blade, mmh!! Finished off with my now go-to balm.
