Very fast shave. This razor combination inspires confidence. Did get a couple nicks around the goat, however.

Dovo Best (wtg, partial xtg, partial atg)
Muhle R106

The Dovo still seemed a little rough. I did a maintenance touch-up hone afterwards, using Norton 4k/8k, C12k, CrO balsa, and strop. I'll see how it goes tomorrow.

Hey Andy - How do you like the Semogue 830? I was thinking of trying one out, but my experience of the 620 wasn't so hot.

Hey Andy - How do you like the Semogue 830? I was thinking of trying one out, but my experience of the 620 wasn't so hot.

I like it, which is saying a lot because I'm not really a boar guy, but it sure works well with the P.160. I've heard the 620 is very small and only good for face lathering.

All you habitues of the SOTD section may be seeing quite a bit of this cream in my daily offerings for a spell. It's getting pretty firm and I've decided to try and make use of it before it becomes too much of a PITA to work with. Superb stuff.

Cella Shave Soap

The Dovo was sharper after my touch-up honing. I need to work on getting a smoother edge. I find the SOC too dense but I haven't given it enough work to break it in. I am thinking I should have gone for the 1305 instead. The Omega 30005 was good from shave one.
