Thank you for the tips Sham, I think the problem was me and not the razor as it did very well ATG on my neck even with my stubby hair thanks to the larger area and thus easier reach for a beginner. I also just realized that I didn't rinse the oil off the blade before shaving :/. I'm in Europe but issues would have to continue for weeks/months from now for me to even consider the blade is the problem which, considering my skills, would only be a bad excuse. I'm already looking forward for my next shave and write some feedback in the upcoming weeks!
