I’ve been trying to crack the code on this razor for way too long, and although I’m not quite there, today was easily the best shave I’ve gotten from it. Still a little bit to be desired, but using a flatter angle made a big difference in comfort. Closeness is totally fine, but nothing to write home about.

Theme soap brand today. I killed my IRM aftershave last Moose Monday. I used Irisch Moos aftershave today to compare the homage to the OG. The scent is really nice. Stirling did a great job, but the OG is better.

1st pass WTG, touch up XTG on chin and neck. Taking down 5 days of growth. Resulted in a socially acceptable but not super close shave.
This was my first time using the Game Changer. I wanted to do an apples to apples comparison so I used my favorite blade in my current favorite shave soap instead of trying all the new stuff I got. I like this razor a lot! It is maybe slightly more efficient than the Stirling razor and certainly much less irritating/aggressive feeling (for me). I did have a small amount of tugging on my chin hairs which I mostly attribute to poor technique. The XTG felt way better than XTG feels with the Stirling razor so maybe I will try a full XTG pass next time :)
