  1. I think the head geometry is distorted then indeed. Because a Krona should (YMMV) be a mild razor.

    Good morning friends. Easy three pass shave today with the G-Bar, very efficient razor. La Toja produced wonderful protective, slick lather and it all came together for a dolphin smooth finish. This was a new GEM blade and it's been my experience that these don't feel as smooth on the first day as they do on the second or third. Glacial Lemon Chill balm iced the finish and I'm off. Have a great day folks. :smile :):

    Very nice shave. The soap is very good. I had too many water in my brush, so the lather was a bit thin with bigger bubbles. But that was my fault. Nevertheless the soap had a very good cushion, glide and skincare. The Schick did it´s job fine as always. Gentle and smooth. Nothing to complain.

    Have a great time and take care Friends.

    A great shave this morning. The BSB whipped up the MW Lime into a nice slick lather with very little effort. I really enjoy the straight forward lime scent. A 2 pass shave, XTG &ATG, followed by some minor touch ups ended in a near BBS. Keeping the citrus theme going I finished the shave with a splash of F&C Shambala. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.
  7. Morning Jim. Great setup today. Excellent rescue of the brush handle.

    Another amazing shave with Tabac. It simply does everything well - water tolerance, quality and ease of lather. Three easy passes on five with my Futur and I'm left with a drama free dolphin smooth face. I finished with Tabac aftershave to carry on the classic scent.

    Prep: Warm shower
    Blade: Pella injector
    Razor: Schick G1 Injector
    Brush: Omega 10049 boar
    Lather: VDH Luxury
    Post: Witch hazel splash, Skin Bracer, Nivea sensitive balm
    WTG, touch-up

    Well, I can say that Pella blades are not as smooth or near as comfortable at Chick blades! This was my inaugural run with a Pella blade. It started off okay but then started to feel tuggy. It was really inefficient on my neck. I had almost 2 days of beard growth and from experience a Chick blade with the G1 would mow all of that down quite easily. The Pella blade struggled. So I did one pass with touch-ups on the jaw and neck and called it a day. Decent shave but nowhere near the capabilities of the G1 with a Chick.

    The VDH lathered up beautifully again. Skin Bracer added a nice scent and light menthol touch after the witch hazel splash. Finished off with Nivea balm, as always.

    Have a great day!
