This Iberia just landed yesterday. So I immediately has to take it to the stones. I set the bevel on a 3k Hayate Yoshihiro synthetic, then went to Kasumi with my Shobudani Suita and finished on my Nakayama Kiita. I stropped suede/leather on my Kanayama. The resulting edge was fantastic.

I've seen it boasted that Iberia's have a better feel even than Filarmonica. With no exaggeration, I agree with that. The steel felt incredible. Light and extremely gentle, it has that amazing Swedish steel feel. Crazy happy with this razor.

I took a page out of u/oswald_heist's book and decided to pair Black Watch with Passion Incense. Super nice pairing.

Wonderful shave this morning.

It was definitely love at first sight!

Close and comfortable shave, small nick (but no blood) near my ear. No irritation.

That razor looks like a nice grab!

I think that was you that was telling me about GTB in discord. I'd always thought it was a CC. I have some Fresh Cut Fade from 345, that's CC, want a smush? For science

River Razor has been on my radar since you first talked to me about them. Doubly so now. I'm crazy interested to find out about the Iberia myself!

Thankfully it doesn't burn me, but I definitely feel it. I've really only ever gotten frag burn from Crafter's Choice and Ghost Town Barber

I love 1889. The scent, in a way, kind of reminds me of Clubman. I do actually get some tingling from it.

Close and comfortable shave, no nicks or irritation.

It really helps mix things up, that's for sure
