Not the best shave i have had with a Rolls, the Blade was fine during the WTG, although when i proceeded with the XTG/ATG mix pass i felt the blade became "prickly" and it was tugging quite a bit on the tougher chin stubble, i ended up with a very acceptable finish although it was not a smooth comfortable shave.
Everything else performed brilliantly, a really nice lather mixed in the Captain choice Copper heavyweight and there was next to no indication from the splash even though i was expecting something more.
On checking the blade under the loupe it looks fine? i will have to re - hone it and set a new bevel then go from there - when i get a bit time.
Anyway,
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
