Closed Completed: Seygus Spain 2016 razor pass around

[p.b]

@riverrun Please can I skip a place? I currently have the Alu Mongoose and it's not fair to hog both.

 

[p.b]

@Stacy555 can we swap places please? Paul

 

[riverrun]

@Stacy555 will be more than happy to do this, as he was hoping for the Red Seygus.
I still have your address, Stacy. Unless you have moved recently

 

[p.b]

Perfect

 

[Stacy555]

Sure, I'm happy to move up the line.

PM on its way Andreas.

@Neslo - the Black Seygus 2016 is on its way by Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1pm. Tracking details have been PM'd accordingly.

Good luck with it...

Thanks again for the chance to try it out Andreas @riverrun and Gustavo @Thalasos!

 

[Stacy555]

RED Seygus is safely in Kent.

First shave with full 2 days growth, planned before party tonight, will post first impressions tomorrow.

Thanks, Stacy. What about the black one, @Neslo?

Black one arrived safely on Friday. Had first shave with it last night and found it to be quite light even with the weight fitted to the handle. Will reserve judgement though until I have used it a few more times

Thanks, Neslo

Shaved as expected last night, only spent 1 hour at the party, seem to have picked up a bit of a chest infection, hitting the antibiotics and painkillers, hope to be in better shape sometime tomorrow to post a report.

 

[Neslo]

Had second shave tonight using a new Voskhod blade. Love the look of the razor but feel it is just too light for my personal taste. Found myself using more pressure than normal and although no nicks, cuts or irritation it wasn't a great shave. I have quite a coarse growth and even after a 4 pass shave - usually 3 passes at the most for me - still wasn't close to even a DFS. Grateful for the oppurtunity to try it but just isn't for me.

No need for me to try a 3rd shave so if p.b can send me details I will post it on.

 

[riverrun]

Thanks for your thoughts, @Neslo. At 55.5 grams the Seygus is one of the lighter DE razors. A matter of personal preference I guess. I found I could get (close to) BBS in four passes easily. YMMV
@p.b is indeed next in line.

 

[Whosthedaddy]

I should get on alright with this being a lightweight.

You might find it too heavy
