@gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social recommended I hit this razor with my 10k, so I did that 3 shaves ago. The slight tuggyness is gone and although I'm still too new to have real preferences, this razor is more enjoyable to me now. My technique is still improving which helps, too. I've also started stropping more (from 20+40 linen/leather to around 20+50-70 depending on how I'm feeling).

Theme justification: The first scent note in Promises is Orange. The orange is prominent, with 'everything else' acting as a supporting role (including snowmobile exhaust).
