3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
This was the third shave in my 14 Shoot-out series. The Böker had an edge created with a La Petite Blanche coticule. This provided a terrific shave; both comfortable and DS-BBS close.

I got the SV Cubebe splash in a software lot I bought earlier this year, and I really like the scent. How does the soap perform?

Though not cheap, I think all of the SV soaps are great. The post-shave skin feel of Cubebe is slightly different from the others. I think this is intentional. The basic Beta 4.3 soap base is one of the most unique and best vegetal soap bases I have used.
