OK The feather AC is a scary looking knife BUT WOW, no messing with angle so I have read, just put against your face and away you go, not really this simple it did need a very slight and I mean slight angle. I don't even think the blade got near any stubble, I am sure they saw ic comeing and thought "screw this, i'm outta here" and jumped off my faced, what a close first pass. didn't want to push my luck so jumped onto the ball end to buff the odd but.
So basically 1 full pass WTG with the Feather AC, no second pass just a touch up with the tech, not as close as 3 passes with the tech (WTG,XTG and ATG) but closert than 2 passes (WTG and XTG) - I think that makes sense

Prep: Hot shower
Soap: Henks Dutch Moss
AS: Lucky Tiger + TOBS Original
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Very, very clean
I like this blade, a lot. Seems like it´s a chubby one and compact (I thought so at first), but it´s not. When I mesured the cutting edge it was 3,7-3,8 inches long, depending where you start to mesure. Yet it moves way easy around the face
Alan: Congrats! Sweet feeling, yeah!? Pugh: Tabac´s da shit, but nice smelling :lol:

3 passes: WTG, XTG, XTG all on 5, plus buffing on 7
Result: DFS, but a weeper and some burn due to ill-advised buffing under jawline
Following great advice about the Palmolive cream, I found that, indeed, it benefits hugely from very little water. The razor glided around for three passes with minimal effort, and only trying to blade buff on an area I know is sensitive with the razor set on 7 caused any irritation. :roll: :shave

Nice three passes on the face, very smooth but caught a small lump on the head and claret ensued, Luckily not going out again today......must have been applying too much weight needlessly.
