Here's to another year on the shaving room !!!
Have a great day all....
Just so you know the blades I supplied were Gem stainless steel, I doubt you would have used these on your windows before. The cheap and nasty window scrapers you find on eBay maybe. P.Well after receiving the 1912 kindly loaned from @Blademonkey this morning, and having 2 days growth it felt rude not to get cracking with the first single blade shave in a while!
Razor: Ever Ready 1912
Blade: not sure but I'm sure I've used them on my windows before
Brush: Simpsons
Soap: Cella
Post: Cella Post shave Balm
Although I wanted to try out the lucky tiger I received yesterday I wanted safe software today.
So, the shave was of mixed results so I'm going with my usual critical bullet point assessment!
Positive
Really intuitive angle, I certainly prefer these to the DE.
3 passes with ease, comfortable bar some negatives below and achieved what my multiblade does.
Really like the pin point edge on the sideburns, not being allowed a beard or outrageous hair in work I like to rebel and grow sideburns to within 0.000000000000001 of what so can get away with lol
Negative
Couldn't get it under my nose so had to reach for the cart.
Was quite a skippy shave on the first past, especially around my chin, smoothness increased with each pass
Although not getting my usual neck irritation, I do have a few spots.
My neck is quite 'rough' with stubble.
Overall I enjoyed it, the head just seems rather large to get to all my features. Luckily I've a Supply SE V1.2 on the way from @Far Cry Toff on the way with thanks to hopefully address that!
