Thanks. Took me a shave or two to find the right angle but when I did oh man she shaves. I use an angle similar to what you would use with an old GEM SE. Those Wilkinson blades can be had at Shoppers Drug Mart if you want to pay their price.

Thursday Morning Shave



Henkotsu Kaizan // Livi Loom Strop // Shavemac XL 2-Band
Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica 4.3

My first use of the Super Professional blade........

Super Professional has Extra thickness and blade exposure vs the Professional.

My only feather usage, till now, was the amazingly sharp DE blade. So I have great expectations :-)
