Just got this Razor yesterday. Told my daughter I would shave goatee once I get it. 9 weeks later it's here. Tried these settings : 1st pass :3 2nd -2 3rd-1
First of all, even if the blade seems to be aligned on both sides, one side felt more agressive than the other, once you know it it's okay but sucks a bit. First pass at 3 went throught butter in my goatee. Already had a great shave after first pass. Nothing special with 2nd and 3rd pass except I was happy to be on setting 1 for against the grain because 3 was agressive even with the grain. Results : BBS but lot of irritation on my neck and few nicks. Nicks probably because Im new to this razor but irritation I'll see next times but never had that much with other razors. Had to use alum block and neck is burning even 30 mins after.
Not a fan of the bulky head, was fine for the mustache area but was more complicated for the neck right under the chin on both sides. I also feel I have less control than a regular T shape head.
Efficient razor, was 16cad with blades bank shipped. Wonder if I'll get rid of the irritation. Might try only 2 passes next time. Used proraso red line PS, Soap, Thayers and AS
For the price, worth a try.
