Though I prefer to use heavier AC/SE razors, I was rather pleased with todays Shave. I think last time out I rather rushed the Shave, but today I really concentrated and managed with the the aid of the heavier handle to get the lightness of touch needed to get a trouble free and ultra close finish.

First use of the Mühle Rocca and what a smooth and efficient razor it is. I was surprised by how loud it sounds when cutting, but the suggestive aggressiveness is well controlled. A very easy razor to use and I'm happy I finally went ahead and purchased it.

Great pics this morning, guys, all of you!


A vintage shave for me, of the tobacco infused sort. No complaints whatsoever, quite the opposite. Decanted the aftershave into a glass bottle after the pic and it’s already improved, having suffered the Pinaud plastic phenomenon.
