This is sample part 1 of 3. This soap has a nice base. It lathered pretty quickly and went on slick. The scent is nice. First whiffs didn't reveal much but after it bloomed and lathered it presented and held true to its name.

This trifecta of Susurro was my LG2025 prize, and I'm very happy with it. Beautiful scent, great performance, and a great shave. What a great way to start my day.

3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Wonderful first use of this new razor. This was also a test shave for a synthetic edge that I put on the razor. Using Bloom made the whole shave a big win. One of the best shaves I've had in a while.
Thank you! I think the look of WoolfBlades razors are probably polarizing; love ‘em or hate ‘em. If it weren’t for the steel and the craftsmanship, I would have passed on this. Kind of fun to photograph, though.
Boris and Ulrik are my “go to” guys. Trevor was great to communicate with, but this was not a custom razor that he made for me. I will probably do that at some point, but I have projects with the other guys to do first.

Only four shaves in and I'm close to calling it. The 1 mark edge is smoother and sharper than the 2 mark edge. I'm going to switch to blindly choosing the blades next, just to make sure.

What do people share in these threads usually?
I had a good shave, applied a warm cloth then used badger soap and Kai blades, synthetic brush. No nicks or burn.
Bought a sampler pack a while ago and have used the Kais since — didn’t really care for the feathers or merkur brands.
Merkur and other brands put a dab of adhesive on the packaging and I can’t stand the smell of it, Kai just fold the paper, much nicer.
Edit: this should be on Wednesday thread, I’ll just pretend I shaved tomorrow

In addition to what @snooting@sub.wetshaving.social said. People often ruminate on a range of things. This month @djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social will be talking through and a/b straight razor test for example.
I'll mainly be forgetting to post.

Will this cream tub ever end? Must be near the 30s for shaves on this razor/blade combo as a result

Excellent shave. This razor seems to be in some sort of sweet spot and I'm getting very smooth results.
I do love the Chiseled Face base. It's just soap, and it does soap stuff really well.
Last day to enter this PIF! https://sub.wetshaving.social/post/3055243

I find them pretty, though too pricey for me. If I buy a new one, I'd rather take a River Razor and save on import, duties.
