Prep: Hot shower
Brush: Shavemac D01 knot
Razor: Hachiken
Soap: Castle Forbes, Limes
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Very, very clean

This razor's a brutal shaver, very good, but if you use the slightest pressure you'll come to close ... This Shavemac was perfect for the Castle F cream and face lathering, very nice shave!
