Did a late night shave this evening. Prep was several rinsings, and a splash of Lectric Shave.
I selected my Parker Variant and a new Voskhod blade on a very aggressive setting. Cream was Proraso blue.
Two swipes and I was done with it. Horrible dragging tugginess. Very uncomfortable. Was this even intended to be a cutting implement?
Loaded an Astra SP into my Game Changer and proceeded to have a very nice, smooth shave. I have several tucks of Voskhod left, destined to be curios in an antique store 50 years from now.
I know...this is the part where somebody says that once you wear off the coating, it gets better. No thanks. A blade should work properly on Day One. I'm not messing with these things again.
