Last day of March and Sunday to boot!
Hello everyone!
Another newly received razor, a CLIX bakelite razor, that's a close relation to the Conrads I have. Got the case with this one and it is bakelite too.
While giving it the work over, I noticed it has a steel incert for the handle threads. It was slightly rusty, I cleaned it up and oiled it hopefuly to stop any more rusting. Rusting causes the meatal to expaned, busting the handle.
Using a new feather for the first pass it was very evident that this was a mild razor. The second pass with another freshly unwrapped feather was about the same. It took a third pass on the neck to get a good clean shave. I used blade number 2 for neck clean up.
I did get a good shave, verging on a great shave, so not to bad a little tool.
If you like light and mild razors that do a good job, this would work. Now it not being Open Comb ment more rinse cycles, but it still did the job.
Not a favorite of mine, but one that I can use effectively.
