Fast and efficient. Minimal cleanup. BBS
This is the 3rd shave with this TP blade. It is very smooth, and seems to be getting sharper (perhaps the coating is wearing off?). My concerns from other reviews are so far not appearing.
I shaved a few days in a row with my DE and a Feather blade (Baili 3 piece).
The shave was surprising smooth and fast, but not quite as close as my SEs.
I also noticed the shave did not last as long. It is similar as to when I shave with an electric. I think the exposed edges of the new whisker is “rougher” or at least cut at a steeper angle than as with an injector or GEM. So the growth seems to be “fuzzier” with a DE, even a very sharp DE like a Feather, than with a nice flat angle of attack SE.
Anyone else experienced this?
