Along with what was asked in the post above, What kind of pressure are you using. If the razor is properly shave ready and you are using at least a 30 degree angle your troubles could be partially due to using pressure while shaving. This is a hard thing to do when you are use to shaving with a disposable, no or almost no pressure should be used. Also try a smaller angle next shave, it may help.
I admit to trying to use light pressure, but nothing gets removed if I do this. But then, more pressure doesn't always insure anything either.

You bring up a good point. My 'arm hair' test is always with zero pressure, and the hair just comes up easily.
