Thanked: 4942Machined Blades
Hi Guys, After experimenting a couple of weeks ago with the Feather
Razor against an actual straight razor, the main point of interest for
me was that the straight razor side of my face after shaving had a
more baby butt feeling to it while the Feather shave was just as close
but had a more dry feeling. So......... I have been messing around
with a DE on one side of the face and the Feather on the other and
then comparing both against the straight razor. I am finding that both
the DE and the Feather produce nice close shaves, but both leave my
face with a more dry feeling than when I use the Straight Razor. I
still find that the Straight Razor remains more forgiving as any
pressure or missed angle or going over a scar under my chin produces
little nicks when using the Feather or the DE. I used Feather blades
on both the DE and Feather razors. Out of all the Disposables, I will
say that it appears that the Feather is the only one actually made for
shaving. This has been fairly insightful for me as the Mach 3 also
produced this clean but dry feeling on my face and I can only
speculate that it must be due to the machining of the blades. Being
technically handicapped, I can't really give a more educated
explanation here. Any thoughts?
