First shave with general....DFS achieved !!
@Blackmass
I've noticed quite a few of the guys on here change over the aluminium handle to a ss to add extra heft to the razor.
I actually enjoyed using the razor as is and found it to be a pleasant change from my ss razors, (variety and all that ) A nice smooth shave with no mishaps or redness, also the head of the general is similar to that of my ATT SE1, a + for me.
I would like to thank Olly, AKA, @Looney12345 for giving me the opportunity to own this razor, cheers mate !!
I'll see how the general shaves in the days/weeks ahead , so far so good.
HAVE A NICE DAY FELLAS

A very close shave with the Parker, it shaves very much like my short handled Progress only a little more aggressive and with a better knob....not all bad!The Klar soap is fab and am loving the Ginger & Louts scent.
Finnished off with some Geo F Trumper's Eucris, so looking good and smelling great....
Have a good one.......
Yes, it's very nice indeed, I may well buy a bottle on the strength of the sample I was givenEnjoying the Eucris, Paul? I love its oakmossy-ness.
Highly recommended IMO. For what it's worth, I find it finishes off a shave with GGR Highland Bothy soap...Yes, it's very nice indeed, I may well buy a bottle on the strength of the sample I was given
Even more reason to buy then! Was it you that enabled me as far as the Highland Bothy was concerned ?Highly recommended IMO. For what it's worth, I find it finishes off a shave with GGR Highland Bothy soap...
