Fast Flying Feather--- AC DX That Is..
It finally happened this morning. I was running a little late and didn't want to miss a morning net (ham radio KE7HGE). I didn't have time for stropping and general razor preparation, so I intended to grab the DE and do the job. I lathered quickly with the Sienna soap, and was reaching for my HD, I spotted my AC DX and grabbed it on impulse. I had tried a Pro Guard blade which was still in it from last week. I gave my face a once over WTG, A quick ATG pass on my cheeks and jaw line, plus a little blade buffing on my neck. I couldn't believe how quickly it had gone when I glanced at the clock. I guess like many other things, with practice you really can "put yourself in automatic mode" and go for it. I don't plan on trying this everyday, but it sure was nice to have it happen.

Just be careful with those Feathers, and I know how important it is to attend the Net.

Thanked: 351Yepp, fastest razor in the west is a Feather AC wielded by a skilled user. My little 9/16" Griffon Carbo Magnetic is a close second though.....

It would be foolish for me (or anyone else) to try and go fast, it just sorta happened. I normally like to take my time and enjoy the process.

Thanked: 351Ken, you are so right..... this should not be taken as an encouragement to try to shave as fast as possible, that's why I didn't list the time it takes me. Frankly, there is little point in rushing a shave... I enjoy my shaves far too much.
