On only one use - closer to Proline than Feather - which is fine by me. I'll let you know about the five mark when it ought to be into an easy stride.Did the ProShave blade feel similar to a Proline P to you Iain ?
I do not use DE anymore.This weatherbeaten auld gairdner’s mug is tough enough and I thought I was making the angle like you say but I guess not. Shaky hands, perhaps…
Plus you say the GEM gets smoother after the first use. I’ll wait a day till I have another go. Maybe it’s just the the total difference from DE? Very likely it’s just this daft bawbag right here.
No progress without sacrifice, eh?

This was a quick shave before a weekend away. Didn't have time for an SOTD picture so here's a cloud in the shape of a...... Segway.
Great cream and the twin blade is getting even better.
You'll man up with a few more shaves with it. Give one of our seafaring fellows a shout and see if they'll take you on a bez about at sea to toughen yer skin up. Bay Rum is a good choice. More practically for the shave, get the cap flatter to your face with the handle sticking out at what will feel like a really weird angle, coming from double edge razors. If you see comb marks in the lather, get the angle flatter still.
