Trying out my new razor today, didn't go quite as planned. .095 is the blade aggression of this razor. WTG passes, it was able to remove the 4-day stubble growth! The shave got smoother as the new blade wore in. I started getting used to doing XTG passes again, big mistake! Upon doing XTG passes on my neck, I nicked myself in two places. I wouldn't call them weepers per say, they weren't flowing crimson rivers, but they were blood spots.
ATG passes went a lot smoother, and this is when I started becoming more impressed with the razor. Its most certainly a smooth shaving razor, as other's have said. But as with every new razor, we have to learn new techniques in using them, and I nicked my mole, and now its inflated. However, I did achieve a smooth shave otherwise, 100% BBS, 0% DFS. Because of the nicks though, this will be a low rating.
Total score 7 out of 10!
PS: Were not off to a good start with a brand new razor, but its my fault, I just have to adjust and figure it all out.
