Unboxing & First Use; Above The Tie Calypso R1 [#447]

Today’s YMMV Shave is an unboxing video, followed by a traditional wet shave and the first use of the Above The Tie Calypso R1 razor. We use a Gillette Silver Blue blade, Wickham Soap Co. 1912 Le Bleu soap, which is lathered up with an Alpha Shaving Outlaw 26mm G5 Synthetic brush. Post shave we use Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel, Baxter of California Post Shave Balm and Missoni Pour Homme Eau De Parfum. As always, your mileage may vary – this is simply my experience with this setup on its first use.
