Finally Got a Red Tip!

Well, ever since I first saw one on here, I've wanted a Gillette Red Tip. Silly reason, but as a UGA Bulldawgs fan I like everything red, and thought it would look good in my little shave den. I had heard a few people on here talk of the great shaves they got as well, and thought that was a nice plus. :001_cool:
Kept seeing them sold on the B/S/T right after I got there. Well, I pulled the trigger in a little RAD splurge and snagged on off of evil bay. I used it for about a week now, and just can believe how awesome it is. I've been using an Astra SP, today was day five on my blade. I'm getting tremendously great shaves!:thumbup: Not quite BBS, but I've never been able to get there on my neck anyway. Not 100% sure if its the razor, the blade, or both but I'm loving this set up. Thought I would share with the good folks who won't look at me like I'm too crazy.
:shaving:
 
I love my red tip too! So much so I got a backup :thumbup:
I also have a Futur also which is "other" favorite!
Both are great with the Astra SP blades.
 
I shaved today with my Red Tip, loaded with a Feather. Great combo that gave me a pretty close shave. In fact, the RT gives me close shaves every time I use it!
 
First time with my Red Tip today as well after scanning the BST for a while. I teamed mine up with a Bic blade. With my DE89L, my chin tends to be a trouble spot that requires extra passes. The Red Tip took it out without any extra effort needed. I've actually had it for a few weeks, but I almost feel bad using these old pieces sometimes even though I don't buy to collect. Maybe I just need to get another to keep in storage.
 
I think I have found a new RAD:thumbup: I'll take them all.
Note to self: Don't let SWMBO near the computer to find out my plan.:001_cool:

Too Late for me !! My SWMBO is on to me and has me figured out !! She just watched me buy yet another flare tip superspeed on ebay 5 minutes ago !!
