Not at all Paul. I just don't think it's for me at the mo. Still learning my trade, so to speak.I hope I didn't say anything to put you off trying this razor, face your fear and laugh in the face of your enemies !P.
Well that's ok then , I would not want to be the person who put someone off trying something new.Not at all Paul. I just don't think it's for me at the mo. Still learning my trade, so to speak.
From what I have seen, you are more likely to encourage someone to try something new.Well that's ok then , I would not want to be the person who put someone off trying something new.
@riverrun - would it be possible to be added to this pass-around as well please Andreas?
You win some, you lose some....Could you remove me from the list please Andreas
Reading up on the feedback, I don't think I would find it suitable for me !
Many thanks
Good luck - shaving any stubble off.View attachment 28053 View attachment 28052 I was prepairing a feather blade to use with the Rocnel tomorrow, now as you can see from the bottom image the Feather blade is deeper than the Gem so I thought this is going to be even more aggressive with that extra blade exposure, however when I put an used de spined Gem blade next to a un doctored Gem blade as seen in the second image you can see the back of the blade does not go all the way to the back of the spine, so when I put a spine on the Feather and pushed the blade all the way to the back of the spine as can be seen in the first blade image what you end up with is a shallower blade than the origanal Gem. Less exposure may give a less aggressive shave, as you can also see I have taken the corners off the cutting edge that were causing me problems whilst shaving by digging in and scratching or even cutting my skin. The blade fits in the razor and there is less blade exposure , so I will see how that goes tomorrow. ( the 009 RD spine is from my spent Pal Super carbon blade) the image at the very top is the razor fitted out with the Feather blade and there is a reduction of around 1mm of blade, will it shave? I will find out tomorrow and report back.P.View attachment 28051 View attachment 28050
