After using a Futur for a couple of months now, this morning I decided to use a Gillette 1940's Superspeed I purchased last year. This was my first shave with one of these.
The outcome....WOW. No prep, just soap lather and a new Derby blade. At first I thought, "What a joke...this thing is so light compared to the Futur". But to my surprise, this was truly a BBS. No nick, no burn...just shaving bliss. That was this morning at 7. Just got back now at 3:30 and my face is still as smooth as a baby's butt.
I still have a Merkur HD in its box...haven't used that one yet either. But I can't imagine getting a better shave than today's with it. But we'll see. That one is up next. When? I don't know since today I found my true love.
Thanks for the read.
