    Smile SR points

    At first, as a newbie, I thought the round point would be the ticket for me. Now that I have gained more experience with the razor, I like them all. Square, round, spanish, spike, french; they all have their purpose and use. Which you like and why? I am not too old to learn about SR. Juan.

    I shave with 3 different type points . I like the notch point and the round point the most , and the spike point least because I sometimes nick myself with the spikes unless I'm paying very close attention to where the point is going .

    I have round points and spikes. I prefer round points but I only have a moustache and don't have a lot of edging to do.

    I've used spike and round points. Although I have no problem with either, I seem to prefer spike points. You know exactly where the edge of the razor is, and it's easier to do places like your sideburns when you come close to your ears. I've cut my ear lobe with round points a couple of times...

    I like Spanish the most. It's purely aesthetic. I get the same shaves from all of them. Rounds are my least favourite for the same reason. I also see them, unfairly, as training blades, as they're always recommended to beginners.
