I have found the Feathered land,
I think I will be getting rid of all the other blades I have and sticking with feathers from now on. They are just that nice that I cant see going back to any other at this point. With how thick my whiskers are the other blades dull to quickly, if they aren’t sharp enough in the first place. The feathers are just a cut above.
I mixed things up a bit with these shaves, 44 was with the slim that I have been using lately, but with 45 I loaded my EJ with a feather to see how it would do. Both were great shaves. Clean, smooth and now pulling or tugging. Bleeding is nearly non existent as well.
Shave 44 was slim to non as usual. The blade set at 4 just glided across my lathered face. Makes things feel so much better when the blade just slices instead of pulling its way across your face. I think this blade is about done as it is starting to dull, but I have put a few shaves on it now so its time is probably near. Used the extreme comfort again just to add some moisture to my face. I have been sick lately and my face has been very dry because of it.
For a change in scenery I went back tot he EJ for a fixated shave. I put a feather in just to see how much different they really were compared to the other blades I have used with the EJ. I will say there is no comparison. The EJ did its magic as it always does, but did it in a way that it has never performed before. Just like with the slim, the feather brings out the best in the EJ. I will say that this blade makes any razor better. Again with the extreme comfort, still sick and still dried out.
So hopefully soon this shave will be feeling better and will be keeping up with the shaves. I hope this season finds all of you doing well, at least better than I am feeling. Happy shaving every one.
Till next time, cant wait till the next DE shave.
