Today's morning shave was with the Shear Mattaki shavette with the soap of the day Stirling Black Cherry followed up with Van Yulay's Black Cherry aftershave. The lather was whipped up with the Omega Syntex brush. Today's video is an example of what happens when I didn't stretch properly and I got a reminder on my neck. All is well, the bleeding stopped and I still have a smile on my face because I still enjoyed the shave. The Shear Mattaki shavette was easy to load the full DE blade in it and easy to find the angle. There is one thing I should that I don't think I mentioned in the video is the slide ... one should be mindful of it while shaving as to not to push it forward while shaving. All in all (minus the cut of course) it was a good shave. Stay safe and smooth shaves.
