Hi,
Im new to DE shaving and just starte 4 weeks ago, so far i only have this merkur, and its been fine no cuts, or irritation. So far i have used the below blades
Derby
First time i used razor settings 3 WTG - 2 XTG - 1 ATG this some times felt like it was digging in, Face fairly smooth, odd little nick
Second shave 3 WTG - 2 XTG - 1 ATG this some times felt like it was digging in, Face smooth
Third shave 5 WTG - 3 XTG - 1 ATG this some times felt like it was digging in but not as much
On all these couldnt really go ATG top on top lip
Astra SP
3 WTG - 2 XTG - 1 ATG, better than above
5 WTG - 5 XTG - 1 ATG again a bit better
Could just manage ATG top lip, if I kept moving accross slightly each pass
Persona Platinums
5 WTG - 5 XTG - 5 XTG (other direction) - 3 ATG - 1 ATG top lip Still hard to do top lip, but a good shave, better than past 2 blades and no cuts
Feathers
1 WTG - 1 XTG - 1 ATG - 1 ATG top lip much easier
By far the best shave yet
So now im looking for a non adjustable and have seen
edwin jagger 3 one 6
muhle rocca
but aslo have a itch for titanium
Blackbird ti
Henson ti22
Just wondered what peoples thought on which to try next,WHat would be comparable to the Futur on 1 setting
thanks
