    The first shave with this little guy was not too pleasant. I used a feather blade which may be too aggressive for this razor. I will have to try a more subtle blade.

    Any suggestions?

    I've seen a few of those but haven't tried one. Is the shorter handle an issue?

    Try an Israeli Personna. They work great in the old ones, to me. Also last me a lot longer than Feathers, IMO.

    Personna LAB or Blue. Work for me.

    The short handle does take some getting used to...

    Very nice score Dave!!!! Can't give any blade recommendation right now since I rarely use a DE.
