#RawHoggin

The Texas Pig Stink Massacre is not going well. I realize it's only day 3, but the vile hog stench is still very present. Even the power of the mighty Stag isn't putting a dent in it. As for the brush itself, I haven't noticed it feeling any different as of yet. I have a hunch that even though this is made by Zenith, they cheap out on the ones made for RazoRock because this guy does not seem as dense as a Zenith I had before with basically the same knot.

Still cruising along with the OCMM. I think I'm getting better with it already because the first two days left me with some minor irritation that lingered for a couple hours after the shave and today....nada. Face feels great. I'm holding out hope that the blade won't deteriorate too quickly and the shaves stay comfortable for the long run. I have taken a GEM blade to around 50 shaves before, but that was with the much milder and more forgiving Bullet Tip.
