Perry: How do those KI Captains work for you. I really prefer the Schick Proline blades. Of course, I have spent a significant portion of my life with that brand. Have a great Monday! Jeff
When you get ready to buy MWF, you should see if you can get a few guys from here to go in on a group buy from Connaught Shaving to reduce overall shipping cost. They seem to have the best prices on MWF. Great soap, though.
I've only used Frost Drops one time so far. I added some to an aftershave sample bottle. I only put about four drops in. It needs more than that but I haven't gotten around to adding more yet.
The Kai blades work just fine for me. I think the Proline are a tad sharper (if I remember correctly). The Hawk is an efficient razor for me so the Kai Captain Mild blades work really well. There are others on here with much more experience with SE blades - Prolines, Feathers, etc. You will get better advice from them most likely.

Nov 18th No Repeat Menthol Monday Razor: Gillette Tech Blade: Feather Hi-Stainless (2) Brush: Omega S-Brush 10019 PS & AS: Proraso Green SS: Derby Menthol Happy Monday! Hope everyone is ready to attack the week. Yes, I did buy an inexpensive tube of menthol shaving cream so I could do no repeat menthol monday. Probably do it again next week. The Feather HS goes well in a tech. Great 3 pass shave this morning. Decided before I started that I wouldn't do a cleanup pass. I did do a little extra on my jaw but that was it. The grain does crazy things there. No nics or irritation. Good menthol cool.
I wasn’t looking for advice! I’ve tried Feather and Kai in my AC Razors, but I prefer Prolines! Enjoy your day, Jeff
Love that Tech! Just picked up one myself yesterday! I’ll try it with a feather, although I really like this sample of SUNEKO blades I’ve been using.
