    Is my Mircromatic “real teeth” enough to be in this thread?

    Beautiful!!! And you mentioned it's a mild shaver, my #160 definitely was....took 3 passes, but I enjoyed everyone of them!

    Great minds think alike! I really wish I had used a GSB in mine today....a worn-out Feather is really not much fun.

    I haven’t found any Phoenix DOC in here yet. Did everybody fall out of love with it? It’s still one of my favorite razors.

    For an aluminium razor the Leresche is pretty assertive and doesn't need much help.
    Smooth Shaves to one and all.
