SOTD Monday 17 July, 2023

Two pass, close but not too close shave. Weeper on upper lip.

Messed up reknotting omega boar(put in way too much marine silocone sealant) in F400 clone handle, but absolutely love performance of knot and ergonomics of handle is top notch.

My usual (mostly) two pass shave, WTG, XTG, plus some cleanup here and there. WTG on setting 5, XTG on setting 3.

I go back and forth on changing the adjustable setting between passes. Lately I’ve been changing it and it’s been working for me lately.

Very good shave. Even though my honing certainly didn't reveal the full potential of the razor, the Thiers-Issard provides a nice and smooth shave.

Have a good evening!
