Oozuku Comparison Testing Day #1
Oozuku Suita (no Su) | Rex 5/8 | Kanayama (Leather Only) | Acca Kappa 1869 | Shavemac | Thayer's Rose | S70 Eucalyptus | CarrieM ASM | Lorenzo Villoresi Vetiver
Day one of what will be a few days testing and comparing my two new Oozuku. The first test will be a comparison minimizing as many variables as I can. I took the Rex to my Norton 8k for 40 circles and 20 X-strokes. I then lapped the Oozuku with DMT325 and again with my Iwasaki Select Nakayama. I finished the razor with 150 strokes using water only. The result, the razor was really keen yet very smooth. I'll repeat this experiment tomorrow with my Oozuku Assagi to compare...

Prep:Hot shower
Brush:TGN Custom Silvertip Premium A
Strop: SRD Premium IV English Bridle 60 leather
Scuttle: SRD
Uberlather: AOS Sandalwood cream, AOS Sandalwood Soap, 5 drops glycerin
Razor: Clauss
After shave: Master's bayrum
EDT: NOIR
Result: The AOS Sandalwood is my favorite Sandalwood scent of all. The AOS products were what I first used when I started with the straight and therefore bring about a bit of nostalgia. The Clauss is a wonderful shaver and as always this mornings shave brought a smile to my face.
Have an excellent day gentlemen, you've earned it!
