Trouble getting a decent lather tonight. Ended up starting over and still it wasn't up to usual standard.
Straight shave no.20: A good shave all over but I could feel rough spots and by tomorrow morning it would be a proper shadow. So I employed the Futur to smooth things up which it did impeccably. Since I am getting used to swapping hands with the str8 I decided to have a go with the DE but managed to put a nice half inch cut on my left cheek as a result. In hindsight the Futur probably isn't the best DE to try that with 1st time!

I would normally do the dome with this razor and then switch to a straight for my face but just didn't feel like it this morning. The fat handle as usual delivered an epic shave anyway.
