Result: Blade Testing today with Treet Blue Steel blades. More drag than a lot of other blades in the Merkur HD 34C. 4.5/5.0 Shave even though I shaved left handed on the right side of my face. Tomorrow I will start shaving left handed to get used to it so I can improve my STR8 and Feather ACD-N techniques.
Thanks the work on the shank and tang is just amazing:yQuote:
