Another question: Should I use the small screwdriver with a blade in the Bunny or not? It will be fine. Just nice and easy. It may take several goes. Load up some seed blade to cycle.

I have two full magazines of what I call "blanks".. Old blades that have been cleaned and blunted.. I put them in pass around razors before passing them on. They'll come in handy now..

Why didn't you fix for me? Call me out on it then just leave it out there so I look like an idiot. I do that a lot. Look like an idiot and forget to change the date on a cut & paste. Thanks for the catch Fuzzy.[/quote] . He gets his sense of power that way. 😊 [/quote] The truth is I have fixed more then one of those...for more then one person..... Just saying.

1 AprilPre-Shave: Hot Shower Brush: 25mm Synthetic, Maseto Shaving(MS) Soap: New York Razor: Bunny w/ "Mild" Plate, by twhite Blade: Chick Schick (5) Post-Shave: Cold Water rinse, OSMA Alum block and Stetson Black Photo: The last shave with the Bunny is bitter sweet. I will miss the lady in my den. For the last shave I tried out the mild plate. I found the plate to be a little to mild for me. I also tried out the soap that came with the Bunny, New York Shaving Soap. I don't know who placed it in the box along the way but it had a very nice scent to it. With the first and only time using the soap I tried to bowl lather it and it was a little thin. I don't know for sure but it may have been me, I may have added a little to much water. If some one were to tell me where I could pick up some more of it I could give it another go. corto she is on her way. After I got home this evening though I realized I forgot to put the stand in the case with the razor. twhite what would you like me to do with the stand?

The Bunny just arrived at her new den! Thanks Kenneth GarnerPW for the fast posting. 😉 I’ve been toying with unmentionables that need honing and stropping for the last month and a half but I’ll return to single edge goodness at last and nothing better than Tom’s Bunny to do it. I think I’ll jump head first with the wild plate and go from there... reports and photos will follow. Stay tuned!

13.04.2018 First shave with the Bunny and what a treat it was indeed. Only had a bit of trouble with the spring and aligning the blades with the stops. I’ll show a pic It seemed that the right side of the spring lost some load and it was a bit crooked along the blade. I had to put some load on the right side of the holding blade and that seemed to do the trick. It’s not perfect but this did improve the blade alignment. After this initial adjustments the shave was just perfect. I chose the Wild plate but the shave was nothing of the sorts. Smooth, effective and the angled spring helped a lot with the optimal cutting angle of the head. The Chinese Schick blades are very good, very very good. I never have tried them before so at least in the Bunny they were a perfect match. I could have done a two pass bbs shave with some little touch ups but as I was having so much fun I just did my usual 3 pass routine and achieved a dolphin skin polished finish. I think I fell in love... hehe I still will try the other plates but the wild one seemed to be my sweet spot. I think I’ll start to bother twhite to convince him to create a new litter of little bunnies... 😉 And Fuzzy wchnu a Latakia will definitely be smoked today! Hehe hope everything is great with you.

16.04.2018 What a fantastic and ingenious piece of shaving hardware the Bunny is! It's only my second shave with it but it's starting to get in the "Which razor would you take to a desert island?" group. It's an "easy" intuitive razor, even with the "Wild" plate, but make no mistake it's a lean mean whisker cutting machine. Of course its looks are nothing to frown too. It's a very good looking razor. Today I tried it with a Schick Platinum and it was another superb close and smooth shave. Perhaps just a tidy bit less smooth than the Chick... but I could attribute that to the Veleiro cream compared to the Imperial soap that is just one of my favorite soaps all and all. It will be a very sad and tough goodbye this end of the week when I send this beauty to Zeri!
