Blade #1, shave 3
Tradere SB, Wee Scot, Speick shave stick
I thought I knew what smooth & comfortable meant, and I stand by those characterizations of this blade in a gen 1 Tradere OC, but moving the blade into a Tradere SB forces one to recalibrate the way you think of such things. If Richard told me this blade was what he designed the SB around, I would believe it.
Now to be fair, the OC delivered a closer and more efficient shave. But I would be VERY hard-pressed to decide which shave I preferred.
