Is pulling a problem?

I tried a Voskhod blade today. I loved the shave.
It was however the first time I've experienced a blade pulling against my stubble. Not exactly uncomfortable though.
Is it a bad thing that a blade pulls or tugs?
 
I've never found Voskhod's to pull, so giving weight to Bogeyman's argument. I'd say prep/angle might need adjusting. If it still pulls for you then, may as well use something different!

Work on preparation, lather and blade angle (about 30 degrees). Sounds like your angle is too steep. The Voskhod is not my favourite blade but I get reasonable results with it. Should be oakay in your Progress but at a shallow angle.
