Awesome MicroMatic Monday early morning shave. Stirling Oro Valley is top notch.

I was inspired by Wchnu video to do a micromatic Monday shave.I used 2 micromatic flying wings as I compared coated ss to carbon blades. I also used Jikoryen shave soap for the first time,Very nice soap.

The Flying Wing is my birth year razor. Introduced in 1947.  October is my birth month, and I will do a week with the Flying Wing. I have two other birth year unmentionables that will get a week each. Love the Guiding Eye though.

I look forward to you videos, your previous videos on the flying wing were very helpful when I was researching them.
