I got this razor 2 weeks ago, finally got around to shaving with it today. Loaded a fresh 7 O'clock Yellow (my blade of choice) and went to work with a nice lather of KMF unscented.
I set it to 5, then 7, and settled on 6.
Result?
BBS cheeks, and DFS neck. Far better than my usual superspeed, and right up there with the NEW LC that is out to Krona for a plating. This razor kicks serious butt, on 6 it just mows through my whiskers but did not irritate my face!
Next shave I am taking it to 7 for the entire shave. I do 2 passes, WTG, then XTG on cheeks/lips/chin and WTG on neck, then just an ATG on neck to take care of what is impossible to get any other way. So, 2 1/2 passes. I touch up my jawline a bit with buffing, but it was less this time.
These adjustables are sure nice. I really like the blade on skin feeling, knowing it was going to be close, and with the 7 O'clock Yellow, its always smooth. Might have to pick up a few more
