    You used a Feather blade with it?

    Those are good blades but I find that they need one shave to mellow down a bit. I get the best shaves from a Feather on the second to fourth uses.

    Congrats on the Popular and enjoy your razor!

    So much like a freshly honed straight then.
    I had heard that the Feather blades were quite sharp, i will have to try it with an astra, i have used them before in a different razor.

    Ed if its a decent de you will have to send a link to where you got it. Been wanting to get a de for my brother in law but thought the cheap ones on ebay probably weren't much good. Cheers

    What size did you get? I have the g-12 and I love it. I use it even when I don't fill it with hot water. It is just so great for building lather. Enjoy!

    tedh75, I ordered the G12 and let my wife have final say on the color, hamada & blue. It's good to hear you favorable opinion of the GP scuttle.
