I was excited to try this blade with te razor as the consensus around here was that it was marvelous. Well this was disappointing to say the least, way too much irritation to be even remotely enjoyable, tried the Nacet this Sunday and for the rest of this week and so far so good with it.

After Last week experiment I defaulted back on what was the best combo for this razor so far as a comparison and yes, the Nacet blade is much smoother, it was a breeze although a 3 shave week. This is definetly a working solution for me, not the best but working

I wanted to compare this blade razor combo to last week Feather Popular 800-1B / Nacet . While the Feather Popular 800-1B / Nacet is workable for me, the Merkur 34 HD C / GSB blade still comes on top as it has done for the last year and a half or so. I will try a Voshkod blade next week
