First and last day with the Sputnik. The blade just didn't seem very sharp. It took 3 passes to achieve my normal 2 pass results. Not much irritation, but just not a overly pleasurable shave.

Wednesday

Musgo cream
Omega boar
Gem Junior Bar from around 1907
Treet blade (1)

I'm using a handle from an Ever Ready 1914 on this head, as I don't really like the tiny wooden one it came with. Another excellent shave, but the Treet blade is already showing signs of rust after a single shave. Sometimes I've gotten them to last as many as three before I had to toss them.
