This was an amazingly close 2-pass shave and exceedingly comfortable. Yesterday I used the Tatara Amakuni which is an AC razor that has a very design that is very similar to the Vector. I had an excellent shave from the Amakuni but today’s there was more blade feel in today’s shave and it felt surprisinly more satisfying. I need to do a side-by-side comparison of these two razors.

Cherie Tobacco absolutely never disappoints. This is one worth having in the trifecta.
