Had thought of going out for a meal, but probably too hot. However, did have a Shave as planned. Though The Spirit is not quite as efficient as The Aylesworth Atelier, it still delivers a nice close finish without any fuss. Must say I enjoyed the Shave, made very easy by the excellent creamy lather.

Stunning design. Remind me of the blade type used, please.

I have a ProGuard in this at the moment. I’ve found that and the Super work best for me, I use the ProGuard when I’ve not used the Tedalus Essence for a while and based on today’s shave that was a good call!

It's by feel and visualization. Back when I was farming there were times when I would have to do a machinery repair bt feel since I either couldn't put eyes on it or I couldn't see it and work on it at the same time. The skill stays with you. Also before my cataract surgery I was profoundly nearsighted. For me shaving is as much by feel as by sight. I angle the blade by how it feels on my face. I hope that makes it clearer.

Thanks, Ron. I‘m a long way off from there
Appreciate your reply. Have a great day!
