Day 3 showed much improvement on lathering. Loaded longer, had just enough for 2 passes. Might need to load just a bit longer but today was good. Started off day 1 tub weighed 190g after 3rd shave 182g. 2.666g per shave, not terrible with breaking in a new knot. Speaking of that here is day 3 progress. I’m happy with how it’s going. It’s still pokey but nothing crazy.

I’m finally getting used to the lightness of this razor. I have 4 straights that have been in rotation before AA and this was not one of them. I have not weighed them but I feel like this is the lightest of the bunch. Tried something different today, on pass 1 I did short buffing strokes worked really well. Even went as far as using non dominant hand on my cheek only, and that too was a success. Banner day all around.
