Almost same combination as earlier this week, just to be sure. But I am now.... the combination of this razor and blade is not as efficient as others I have tried.... so will not use them combined again.

No temptations yet..... and will not have any, if my shaves keep going the way they went today. Everything worked beautifully together, excellent shave.

Still going strong, but don’t know how long i can remain strong. Just sold my Blackbird Lite today, so may just be on the lookout for a replacement with these funds lying around 🙈😉
Today I pulled out the Game changer again with a Tabac trio. The ASB is finished now, will not buy again anytime soon I think. I like my balms a bit more neutral, this one is quite present.

Today used the Vector with OC plate again. Sure does some cutting, 2 days of stubble gone in 2 passes. Not quite as comfortable as the SB plate, but that may also partly be due to the Feather blade (on it's first use).

And as I already expected, I did buy another razor this week, to replace my BB Lite I sold last week. So not really a 0-purchase year anymore, I must confess. But will continue using my existing products and give the new razor a warm welcome ;-)

While I sold one of my razors and bought another one in March, I have been going steady since then, but strictly it is not a non-purchase year anymore.

The acquired Lupo 95 is quickly becoming one of my favourites I must admit!

I can't blame you for buying the RR Lupo 95. I had one and liked it very much until I ordered the OC base plate for it. The RR Lupo 95 OC is the only razor I have been using for quite a while now and see no need to try others in my collection of DEs except for a bit of variety now and then. I like the OC version enough that I bought another complete Lupo 95 OC as a spare. I'd suggest buying an OC base plate to compare the two versions as you never know you may like it even more.
