Well I got my razor back from Oz.
Having learnt with a shavette I am getting used to the weight of the blade.
As per advice from Oz I didn't strop the 1st time as it is already stropped
A couple of things I noticed.
The shave was not as close as with the shavette but I am assuming that is getting the angles correct. So it is back to square 1
The shave was more comfortable but as the blade is new to me I took some extra time to shave
I have decided to store the blade outside the bathroom as everyone else in my house tries to make the bathroom as humid as possible.
I look forward to learning to how use this new blade correctly
Taking a little extra time in the beginning will pay off big time later on. Now that you have a true shave ready blade angles will be your friend. Get it right and the whiskers just fall off your face. Enjoy the next shave.
