Excellent review, much appreciated!

Thank you. Blackland Era, nice! What do you think of it?

The Genesis is a well made razor. The more I use it the more I like it. But the spring on the pivot is a bit heavy. I never apply enough pressure while shaving to bend the pivot. I thought about swapping out for a lighter spring (like a keeb switch) but it works well as is. As you said, I agree with just letting the weight of the razor do its job, applying very little pressure on the blade.

Of all the shave soap makers out there B&M is my favorite. If you want to give them a try I would recommend Seville. Of course Waves is fantastic too.

Judging by these downvotes, I guess there's not a lot of keeb & shave enthusiasts out there. :)

There’s keeb & puppy, keeb & shoe, keeb & pen, keeb & random stuff. Why not keeb & shave? For me, shaving and keyboards have a lot in common. Both are tools I use every day, with artisans in both fields making cool (and sometimes expensive) well designed stuff.
