Slim adjustable, de89 barley chrome

[purptiger]

I am using my de89 again. I really like it. Here is my question, what is the blade gap on de89 compared to Gil. Slim adj? I want to set the slim to similar setting as de89. Then I could swap back and forth.

Not tbe best person to answer, but better than nothing. I'm quite sure.you would need to set the Slim pretty low to equal the DE89. Not sure the exact number, but the best thing to do is experiment.

According to this http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/Double-Edged_Safety_Razors_Ranked_by_Blade_Gap you would need a 4 setting on a slim to approximate the gap on a de89

My sense of feel must be dead on then, 4 is what I was going to say.

Interesting. I love my slim and my de89. I'll have to dial it down from a 5 to a 4 as well.
