Blade Biter's Tasting Notes

[thombrogan]

Please heal quickly indeed. Yipes

I just had one of the worst shaves I can remember!

Second use Wilkinson Super Sword Edge loaded in a New SC and generously lathered Arko! Blade felt plenty sharp, but every stroke felt rougher than the one before.

I didn't mind it much and continued my 2 pass shave as usual. Aftershave splash felt about average.

But when I left the bathroom and stroked my face (we all do that right?) I saw blood! Blotted my face with some tissue paper and there was literally 100+ red pinholes!

I won't post any disgusting pictures, but it looked as if every hair follicle was bleeding!

A generous all over alum rub contained the slaughter and I left the house without looking like ive just been mugged, but damn!

Yikes! Heal up quickly, my friend.

As others have said, prayers for healing. I had a rough shave and realized I didn't ensure the Slim Adjustable TTO was fully closed. Hopefully, you'll figure it out.

I’m sure it’s just the GSB revenge and you’ll heal up in no time. <eg>

That sounds terrible. I hope you heal up quickly.

Hoping you stop using your (or anyone else’s, really) blood for show-and-tell, @lasta

That sucks when the blades bite back! It can only go up from here. I hope your next shave is way better!

Sorry to hear that, @lasta. Nobody likes a bad shave. Here's to much better ones in the future, cheers!

Heal quickly my friend!

@lasta Waiting on your next shave report, my friend.

I hope it's a great one and you're all healed up.

Thanks for dropping by Eric!

The blood letting was a one of event, had a perfectly fine shave yesterday.

Glad to hear it, but if it wasn't with a GSB, we may have to consider drafting articles of impeachment against your leadership of this cult.

Nice list but too bad width is not tracked. That would help to support comfort and possible sharpness.
We have a width blade list somewhere but from what I remember, it was a pretty short list.

Me, I stick with 3..
Feather, Bic and Persona.
Testing days are long over..

And Well, I do feed my brother all the other blades, he will use just about any DE blade. He does not care.
Except China DE's and most from India.
He is one & done also shaver.
Now his king kong stubble is even thicker, denser, grows in all different directions, and faster then mine...
And that is with a 2 pass shave and depending on the tool, a possible light touch up.
We both love a variety in razors but prefer SR's, DE's - R41s, Slants and others to mix it up...

Enjoy the shave and the blade journey...
