Tomorrow's the day! Get your Razors ready. I've got my Feather AS-D2 all primed and ready to go with my Feather Yellow! I was a shame to remove the Personna blade from the razor, as it was still giving me great shaves. And after over two month it was still amazingly smooth. Some days I didn't even feel like I needed a third pass. Let's hope the Feather blade is just as good... (I know it will be!)

Not officially in this but I have been using one AC blade since August.

Sensor cart is loaded and ready for business!

I’ve heard Artist Club blades tend to last longer, hopefully that’s true.

Well first shave on the Timeless/Nacet for the month. Just wonderful as anticipated.

 

[uacowboy]

First shave on the fresh feather ac in the occam razor was excellent as expected.

 

[GearNoir]

Aaaaaand they’re off!

 

[Soap Thing]

First shave with my Feather ProSuper went well. The soap is thin and sudsy. I’m hoping it’s a water issue. Going to try adding less water and lathering longer next time.

......... IT Begins...

First shave with the Lab Blue in a Post War Ball End Tech was flawless. Looking forward to stretching this one to the max this month. I typically get 5 shaves and pitch, so will be interested to see how long I can get comfortable shaves from them.

Decided to join in on the fun at the last minute, loaded up new Wizamet in the new SS Lupo 72 this morning and will see how far it goes.

 

[Spider]

First shave today with the Feather was just as smooth as you could hope for. I know some folks say they are harsh at first, but this was as smooth as it gets. Looking forward to many many smooth shaves with this blade!



Also, I hope each and every one of you joins my PIF....

How long will it last?? (PIF, with a twist!)

 

[SteveChuckFrank]

Shave 1 with the Wilkinson Sword in the books. It was very good until it turned very very bad....not the blade’s fault though! I’ll spill all the juicy details in my journal.

I also realized that I’m not sure which version of this blade I’m using. I received them loose from @dkeester a little while back. I should probably do some research.

 

[mtpedals]

First shave with the Wizamet and RR Lupo. Planning to rotate through a host of DE’s.
