NotTheStig said:I would say the bolsano is a very sharp blade but it us probably the smoothest of the 50/50 odd I've used, and last is bit longer than average, so I would say they are the main differences IMHO
Bemused said:Well I fitted a Bolzano Superinox to my Gillette Slim last night and performed a traditional three pass with the Slim on number seven.
Golly, that shave was a touch to close for comfort, these are real sharp blades and have left me a little irritated, still have a hot chin today.
Next few shaves will be with a feather in an Edwin Jagger DE87 to let things recover somewhat then I will try the Bolzano Superinox in the DE87 and to if the Bolzano can be tamed a little. The little EJ is my most gentle razor.
But this is one sharp blade :lol:

I use a Slim regularly - I love it, but I wouldn't do 3 passes on 7, as I'd have a plate of raw meat where my face once was. I'd seriously advocate performing the first, WTG pass on 5, and then XTG on 6 or possibly 7. If I use mine with more than 24-36 hours' beard growth, I perform my first pass on 4 or even 3, then go WTG again on 5 or 6, then one XTG pass on 6, as this helps progressively trim the longer hairs in stages.

Ask two people for opinions on blades and you're likely to get a minimum of 3 conflicting opinions :lol:
Only realistic way is to try them for yourself.
