So which did you shave with Bela??? Beautiful!(You prob could shave with either!)
I've got a bunch and this happened to be what I grabbed. I plan doing each type once for three days, give them a eval, then try again to see as technique improves. To be honest, I'm finding shaving with a DE very easy and have no issue's as of yet. I pulled the trigger on an EJ Barley also but am sticking with the gillette until dine with the testing. Agian, why did people ever stop using these? So easy and you get the best of both worlds. We as shavers went to canned goo for this?"We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."

I dont know why, but it's been months since I used this razor and tonight I was pleasantly surprises how well it shaved.
3 passes and I'm smooth as a baby's butt.
The DE was for the head shave. Only 2 passes on the head because I remembered my favorite TV show had already started.
A great shave though. My bald head is clean and Shiney Smooth

LOOOOL : I don't know when and where did learn my Veiga the B.A.S.E. Jump , I am worried about the other razors maybe they want to practice it, I could ask Max about an scale set with parachute .... and then go to jump more seriously from "el Capitan" in the Yosemite N.P.
