Looks like you missed a spot or two, you need another pass.

ControlFreak1,

Did the pooch swallow Slartibartfast's razor?

Razor: Iwasaki size 1
Brush: Simpson t4
Pre-shave: Pinaud Clubman Bay Rum
Lather: 50/50 ~ Lea/C.O. Bigelow
Aftershave: Cap't Smith's Lime Bay Rum

My second shave with Robeson's Guide Bay Rum technique and I do enjoy the warming effect from the first application of bay rum during the shave. One thing I did learn from this technique: Sometimes if you put away an aftershave that you don't initially like, and try it a couple of months later(6 months in my case), you might 'grow' to like it. I absolutely disliked the fragrance of Clubman BR, but six months later I really like the smell.

~ Coswell Labs 'Red Demon', a.k.a. 'Hell Boy'
~ Penhaligons Opus 1870 Shaving Cream, light and very nice scent very nice lather
~ Edwin Jagger medium silvertip w/clear acrylic handle
~ Ogallala Bay Rum with Sandalwood, Pièce de résistance

Fin ~ After only a single pass with my old fave DE the day before yesterday, I want to swear that this is the most enjoyable nick-free pleasurable and satisfying and comfortable shave that I can remember.

I certainly hope not, he is too adorable. Though I was wondering if he had absconded with it.

Setup

I am starting to really like this razor. The soap is not really bad, either...

Shave tested the Puma today, so same setup as before to have an accurate comparison.
No time for a pic though - sorry.
