Material it is made of, of the three on SRD two list the material one is platinum blue pack, super stainless light green pack, and the yellows donot say on the pack what they are made of just sharp...

Cool I will look for it. I used the Gillette 7 oclock yellow pack was almost as good as the Wilkinson swords I have used. They do tug a bit with the ATG on my chin a little so I am not chalking them...

I have been listing all the same but noting if it was 1st 2nd 3rd etc on the shaves. What you have is more intuitive I think and adds to grading the blade better.

If you have any ideas on what it means to have the right blade please add to the list. Aside from one day slapping a blade in the razor and shaving while sub consciously judging it the best way IMO...

I was wondering if they are crappy blades or just me. The merkur blade I used for 2 shaves because I felt at the end of the second shave it was tugging a bit more. I then used a Wilkinson sword for...

I am getting better with this DE smooth shave today a little irritation. I did a WTG and ATG with a shark super chrome it felt like the blades life ended part way through the WTG pass.

So I could not resist I put the included blade in the razor made up a lather and shaved. I have a near BBS shave with it very little irritation I would probably have none but I did a WTG and XTG. I...

I really considered the Ikon because of that but I don't need an open comb just yet.

That is where the extra 30 bucks is justified.

I really don't know why it is $70 maybe they marked it up as a "premium product" to target people that like to say this bad boy cost me $$$.

I hope it is far better than my experience with the shavette because I see a lot of blood with it.

I am still working on technique and its taking a bit what feels smooth dose not remove all of the hair what removes all of the hair is rough. A sampler pack is on my list along with a DE but one day...

The heads do look remarkably similar, and I did a quick search and found some more appealing looking EJ razors.

As long as it dose not feel like a brick being drug across my face like my shavette feels now I will be happy.

I have a small tin on the cream and it smells really good though I never intended to buy more it was a free sample. I am going to look into those a little more if they look close enough I will go...

Thanks for the help I watched a couple vids on youtube on the subject showing all the different styles. I think a closed comb nonadjustable like the spartan is in my future. There are many out there...

I have my parker shavette and have been learning with it. I also want to get a DE to try out but I am having trouble picking one out. There are things like open comb, closed comb, slant edge,...
