Reminds me of a guy on YouTube, Shave326 who for a while was pushing this idea of “stroke range”, which was about how some razors work best using short strokes while with others you could do longer strokes. It was like ‘fetch’, it never caught on.I'm not even sure anymore if it's a valid concept! It was an older discussion that I just remembered. The idea being that some very steep shaving razors don't make the smoothest transition while making a stroke from steep to shallow. Rather, you need to lift and place it cap first. I do know that on the flip side some shallower razors will rough up your skin pretty good if you let the angle get too steep, the Supply injectors being number one. I suspect this all has to do with the angle the blade is held at, I doubt an R41 would manage the transition smoothly.
He’s gone from YouTube now, by the way. I thought he was one of the better ones but he has taken down all his shaving videos. There’s probably an interesting and sad story behind that, but we’ll never know.
