Stepping down the plates again (from 5 to 4 yesterday, to 4 today) and a return to the Lord Classic that I used with the 5 plate the other day. I'm a daily shaver so these lower plates are more comfortable; I'm also heavy-handed, so open-gapped, aggressive razors can be dangerous in my hands, as can razors that are too mild as I tend to press a lot more with those. The 3 plate is my baseline, I think ...
I would not want to go lower as my heavy-handedness would become too strong. So far, the 5 was okay and yesterday, the 4 was better. Tomorrow, I'll climb up the other way and try a 6 with the Treet Platinum on its second run. Maybe that will be more open and so more likely for me to take a light-handed shave. Either way, 4 is my preference for my style of daily shaving.
