Have you tried the Treet Durasharp? Carbon blade with a teflon coating. Much smoother than the non coated version!Again no issues with blade in the razor, perfect shave. Nice refreshing post shave feel.
I don't think I have. I'll keep an eye out for them. I have never really got on with these blades until the past two shavesHave you tried the Treet Durasharp? Carbon blade with a teflon coating. Much smoother than the non coated version!
The only other Treet carbon blades were what was known as the Black Beauty. I couldn't get on with them at all. The Durasharp is a different beast!I don't think I have. I'll keep an eye out for them. I have never really got on with these blades until the past two shaves
Next time I order from Connaught I'll add them, 100 for £6 isn't bad.The only other Treet carbon blades were what was known as the Black Beauty. I couldn't get on with them at all. The Durasharp is a different beast!

there is nothing quite as satisfying as a little solitary soap sniffing! You are not aloneSotd - Thursday 6/7
Razor - Merkur 37c slant
Blade - Gillette Silver Blue (1)
Brush - Maseto silvertip
Soap - RazoRock Emperor
Post - Witch hazel
A/S - Fine Platinum
Balm - Aloe Vera gel.
Result - I noticed a lot of love for the slant around here recently so I thought to use mine tonight. It really is a classic. Simple, cheap and effortlessly functional. In my usual hybrid two passes it made short work of a five day growth. No drama - no incidents. The Silver Blues work very well for me in any razor, sharp but not dangerously so and very comfortable in use. I didn't know where to go with the software tonight - but since I'm on my own this evening I could indulge in a bit of soap sniffing to see what I fancied. I mean - we all understand this but I'm not sure I would want to be caught in the act. It could appear a bit odd if not worse. So - ersatz Aventus it was. The Emperor and Platinum work well together for me. Right - I have to accept that other shaving brushes are available in my den in addition to the 30mm Maseto - yup - like the - soon to be arriving - 24mm Finest in a rather beautiful horn handle I bought tonight from a fellow member. I'm worthless and weak, I know. Only the two-band to go! All in all a really enjoyable shave - I am relaxed, smell nice and smoother than an otter with alopecia. Job done. I remember the bad old days when shaving was a chore - not for some time now thankfully. Enjoy your shaves gentlemen. cheers - I.

P. You amateur - you broke the first rule of 'Soap Sniffing Club!' Ha ha. I.
