2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
This is the first day of the 2025 Formula 1 season, so Undercut gets the call. Great soap and scent. This was also a shave test of a new Jnat edge that I put on the Bismarck last night. The razor had not been honed in close to a year. It took an excellent edge. I had a very close, and comfortable shave.

Great lather and a nice mild scent. I very much enjoyed shaving with this soap, but would have enjoyed a slightly stronger scent.
I also loaded too much soap, making it harder to get the water level right. Next time, I think I need to try with about half as much soap.
Overall, it was a really great shave.

- Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Leather

I picked up Hâttric on a whim yesterday. It’s a heavy, old-feeling musky citrus scent. I think I like it, and it plays well with leather, but the combo is pretty old-school.
Yesterday’s matchup seems to have kicked out CGC. Bummer
