I just posted the package to tripleG. Before doing so, I had one more shave with it. I tried but was unable to get any kind of a useful lather with the Irish Green Tweed cream sample or whatever it was in the box, so I started afresh with MdC. I did use one of the Dorco blades, and it was very sharp and very smooth. There was not a touch of harshness to the shave. Pretty good off a brand new blade, and makes me bummed those blades are not readily available around here.
On a side note, I finished off with a splash of Captain's Choice Cat O' Nine Tails from the sample package I recently bought from them. Like the others, it left my face nicely toned and smooth, and smelled good, but not too much or for too long. This particular one, however, is rightly named. It really, really stings when you put it on. I almost considered including it in the box when I sent the King CObra off to its next recipient, but then it would really have been to its next victim. Not for the faint of heart, the Cat O' Nine Tails.
I got some fine shaves from this big handled razor. It isn't something I would want to own myself, but I'm grateful to have been included on its little tour, and hope what insights I may have had prove somehow useful to the group.
