So I have put these two shaves together to demonstrate the difference a blade can make. (Not because I forgot to post the day before!) I thoroughly enjoyed the shaves with the Astra fitted to the TRC but the with the Pol Silver added it seemed to take it that step on in efficiency. It’s still a mild and easy shave but it just felt like it was taking that little bit more than the day before with the Astra. So much so I’m now on the Razor Company website trying to decide whether to get the aluminium version with 11% off this weekend or whether to wait until the Steel version comes out again!
