Third and final shave today.
Put in a new Personna Platinum and had one of the most confusing shaves ever. Started my first WTG pass and something didn't feel right, It was just not engaging (slightly in terms of actually shaving my stubble, but more the feel - it felt boring). I applied a little more pressure and completed by usual 2 pass shave. At this point, I was just going thru the motions, mind wandering elsewhere, not really focussing on the shave itself - bit like when I used to use an electric razor. Very mild with the Personna compared to with the Feather blade (though that could just be my fear of the Feather blade playing tricks on me)
The confusing bit is that at the end, I have achieved BBS level today, face is super smooth, no irritation at all and it is taking all my willpower to stop faceturbating.
Up to this point, I was on the side of not wanting this as I couldn't see a place for it in my meagre collection, but after today, I feel this could be the go to razor for those special days where you need the shave to be perfect with no issues.
Will be keeping my eye out over black Friday to see if any deals are coming up, though I would prefer just to buy the top and base plates, I cant stand the handle I'm afraid, too skinny and small
It is all cleaned up, packed up, ready for a short trip to the post office.
@Dave-the-rave it should be with you tomorrow.
Also thank you
@Nico1970 for the opportunity to try this razor
