Kai Captain Titan Mild Pink ( 5 )
Tuff Red A/S Lotion

Reverted to an oldie AC/SE today - ATT SE1. What a lovely Shave, the Kai Pink works a treat. By todays standards a bit of a Heavyweight, but by using that weight to do the work with little pressure, I had no problems getting a super close all round finish.

Well, this razor certainly lives up to its name.
I'm really impressed by this one.
It would certainly give the GOAT a run for the money. Subtle differences between the BBS 'A' and the GOAT razors are that of blade feel and blade clamping. The BBS 'A' has very little blade feel and clamps the blade well due to its design. It's a hair less in efficiency than the GOAT but makes up for it in smoothness. A little extra buffing and wow! Love it.
Happy Shaving

 

[p.b]

A great shave from the Cerberus but I’m starting to get a slight tingle from the MdC Vetyver which suggests it’s not going to work out long term.

too early to tell
i've tried each plate once now they all seem somewhat milder than expected results are fine.

How was the razor?

How was the razor?

Very smooth. Good blade clamping. No blade overhang. Think it would be even better with a sharper blade. No blade feel for a medium aggressive plate. Achieved bbs easily. Really can't complain for a full stainless steel setup with 3 different plate options at this price point.
