    I know, Jeff! I am not complaining about the efficiency about the Shake Sharp razor. It's good to have different razors for many situations. I use my safety razors when I really need a very quick shave as opposed to this morning's quick shave with my Dovo shavette. Lol! One more thing, if I use a feather blade, then I want to use it on my shavettes. I like to live dangerously. I have a rep to uphold. Lol!

    Wow, Jeff. That sounds like an incredible shave. I'd have been afraid to start stacking blades in order to get the razor to work. Oh, and... :bounce017::greet002::bounce017:

    Beautiful looking shave, Jason. That brush handle is smoking-jacket-and-pipe classy! Hope you get to feeling better quickly. :)

    True, true... but it makes the time more enjoyable before the inevitable face-squashing ;)

    Tim, it was a Monday. If they don't start rough they get rough before lunch. I shed a little blood from time to time but I am lucky, I have never had issues with razor burn or irritation.

    Unless you're living it. For whatever crazy reason, those 1st shaves with the Personna can be bite-y for me. Still, only 2 more DE shaves to go--keeping my fingers crossed.
    As am I, kind sir. As am I! ;)

    And thank you!
    Thanks, Joe! :)
    Much appreciated, Terry! :)

    Actually, in a way, I had some trouble with it only one aspect. One of the reasons I wanted to move on to an adjustable is I figured I could always change the tilt of my razor to mimic the angle of a slant. But if you are used to shaving like that, and do so with a slant, it then becomes a... normal. Caught myself "normalizing" my slant a couple times during the shave :happy102:
