I finally got the blades for Valet VC4 in from Connaught and was the first time I've ever used a safety razor. The SS feather blades are sharp for sure and I need some more practice on my technique. The shave was quite smooth and enjoyable but I got a little ahead of myself and razor burned my chin but honestly I believe that is was because the Gillette Fusion Hydra gel I was using seemed to dry to my face pretty quickly. I gotta say it was alot nicer than I had built up in my mind. Now I guess I'll need to find some good cream and a brush and work on my technique but I'm hooked for sure.
