Well todays the day i run with this Frankenrazor, the Lupera, i think that sounds better.
Right then, a really thick, creamy lather whipped up on the chin with the X1 best to protect my fizzog as best as possible.
The first few tentative strokes went OK and i found a very nice shave angle, no chatter at all from the razor, this is not as vicious as it looks, in fact it is very, very smooth and comfortable. I completed the WTG pass without issue, not a mark on me and with the rinse off and check it had done a damn good job of things and my face was feeling really comfortable.
I lathered up again and completed an ATG pass, my lather still very thick and creamy, no issues clogging at all, again a very comfortable, efficient pass.
I decided to go for a 3rd pass XTG to finish off, again no issues and the rinse off gave me smooth, comfy, BBS finish.
A wonderful post shave has left me feeling and smelling good and smiling like a Cheshire cat.
I have to admit that was one of the most satisfying and enjoyable shaves i have had this year. It obviously has something to do with the shave plane angle rather than the nature of how it looks.
So, will i use this Frankenrazor again? Hell yeah, i will probably try the L3 plate next though. The Lupo base plate does not fit the Blackland top cap so that trial is out.
Enjoy your day all.
