Thanks for confirming what I thought I was figuring out. It gives loud feedback at a steep angle, but doesn't shave anything. At the most shallow angle it works just fine, but very quiet feedback.

Thanks buddy, I've been trying to add a little something to my pix, and thanks again from recommending La Toja. I like it a lot!
3-30-16 SOTD Brought out the Red Tip today, which is becoming my favorite DE. And I decided to try out one of these NOS Gillette Spoiler blades. The result was fantastic! What a smooth and sharp blade. Probably the closest shave I have had to date! Was even able go atg on the midline of my neck and the Adams apple which I have never been able to do. Results were a BBS with absolutely no irritation. Good day everyone!
SOTD March 30, 2016 My daily shaves for the next number of days are going to be boring from a SOTD photo perspective. I am going to use this cream until the container is empty. There is about 1/4 of the container remaining to be used. Fortunately this is an amazing product. I can honestly say I have never had a bad shave with this cream and there is no scent, so that is a bonus. I decided it is time to try to reduce my soap/cream herd. Using one soap at a time until it is finished may be boring from a photo perspective (I only use one razor). The upside is I should gradually reclaim more space in my sock drawer (where I store my soaps). I may keep my Sundays open for a wildcard shave.

March 30,2016 Razor: Schick Inj. J1(2) Brush: VDH Badger Cream: Proraso White Pre Shave Oil: Homemade A/S: Gillette As for men. Bowl: Pick up at local antique shop No BBS, she keeps eluding me of late. I came close, but not quite there. A 2 pass ATG/WTG, with some clean up. Lady J really knows her job, so smooth and clean, no irritation. I wiggled a little on a flat area on my cheek( tremor ), a small weeper, human error. Other than, that i came out with a very good DFS. I`m satisfied, got rid of that mustashio, thank God and Lady J. I feel a little more "normal" now. Believe me, i don`t have anything against those who enjoy facial hair. To each his own. I admire some that I`ve seen. Best wishes to all. Bill
