On a whim for Father's Day over here I broke out a Derby blade from some I bought at least 7 years ago and loaded it up in a Canadian post-war FH Tech. I didn't even shower (yet), but merely sink washed and used Chiseled Face Santa Paula soap which I bought used in 2019 and am lucky to use three times a year. The shave was superb!
I honestly think nowadays that prep is really the key. Use a good face wash beforehand and after face lathering let the soap sit for three or four minutes as you do some "touch up painting" with the brush to get a nice even lather. This seems to aid damn near every DE blade used to where I can tell little if any difference. Just my 2 cents.
