    You did. Which is why I did not give up on it and went back to it when I actually knew how to properly use my equipment. It gave me three great shaves. Definitely a great blade (not quite the king of the world like someone seems to think, but a top tier blade).:p

    I'm going to miss my Voskhods this month. And my Ladas, Gillette Yellows, Silver blues, Etc....I have vowed to try only blades I have never used. I think perhaps I shall start with the Bics. image.jpg Never tried a Greek blade, but I do like Gyros and Souvlaki, so.... We'll see.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Now that's a focus I can get behind! I'll be following closely to see which blades you choose and how they treat you. I know how mine will TREET me. :happy068: I think you'll find the Bic CP to be a very fine way to start the month. One of my favorite non-Russian blades and the number two blade in the World Tournament of Blades! Nice choice.

    I'm hoping they treat me nice. They're almost as cheap per hundred as Astras.

    Well I will definitely be doing that one week lather focus.today's lather was ...uummm.. Bubbly so day one lather :it was slick and did pertect enough to not get irratated.... How I don't know because it was extremely bubbly and I mean big bubbles.I could see them with my glasses off so I know they were big but overall a good shave.
