I've been through several shaves with my Mamba 70, and they've just been... okay. I have had better results with my poor, unnamed Van der Hagen razor from the kit that was marked down at TJ Maxx.
I used the VdH razor for several months, sure, but the misaligned blade was annoying to mess with every blade change.
I initially tried the same, moderate angle I used with the VdH.
That didn't work the first couple shaves, so I went steep. That really didn't work. The blade did not cut well.
I have tried shallow, but I'm not sure how shallow is SHALLOW. I'm about to mess around with riding the cap even harder (no pressure, just a figure of speech) and see if that works out, but it feels so foreign!
From what I've read, the Mamba 70 is a pretty good razor! Got any tips on using it?
Thank you in advance!
