Giving this razor a test drive (new add to my wife's eco friendly site, I may have had some influence in her adding this line ) This is a great starter shaver for sure.

Anyway, loaded with a Feather blade this mild razor gave a terrific comfortable BBS shave. You guys that use Feathers will appreciate that I did in fact get a couple of weepers along the way.

This soap did wonders on the weepers tho, to my amazement they closed up rather quickly.

Great shave all in all.

 

Thanks, gents,

Paul, yes I like 1907, actually all of the products from Neumann I have tried so far. The aftershave bottles are 3 years or older and none have stoppers or flow control but cannot speak of anything newer than that.

Here is my Sunday Shave:

This shave hasn't been that good. Don't know why...my prep was fine, the lather also...who knows... It was shy to BBS but the last shaves felt better.
