My current take is that it is a combination of both. With its 65g it is lighter but not as much as e.g. Henson AL13 (medium) which I also have, and with that one I normally manage milder shaves. But to some extent it definitely is my inexperience with the razor. At the same time I think it is more physically blade forward compared to my other razors; perhaps like Karve CB with an E plate I would guess? I thought you might actually like itIt's been interesting reading your SOTDs with this. Do you think it was the razor's "aggession" or its weight that did not work for you?
I often get similar results with light razors, as inthink I add too much pressure. Thisnis why I didn't take part in this. I note some of your usual razors are more weighty.

Nice to see someone using inexpensive but good gear. I mean the Shark blade and the Boots A/S. I've noticed that I'd have to spend loads more to get a small improvement. Same with fountain pens and a lot of other things.View attachment 112468
