Last night's shave....
First shave with the Supply SE courtesy of the pass around. Thank you to all those involved in arranging it.
So what did I think? Well seen as this was last night's shave and I'm still struggling to find the words I'll leave it up to you to decide.
The fit and finish is excellent. No problem changing the base plate and no issues fitting the blade either.
The feel of the razor in hand is something I'm not sure about. The weight is OK (110g) and there were no issues with it becoming slippy. It's just the way it felt in the hand.
Hard to explain by what I mean but at times it felt uncomfortable (not the right word I'm looking for) to hold.
On to the shave. I chose base plate 2 and used the personna blades provided.
The first pass was very smooth with very little audio feedback. I had to check to see it was removing any stubble and it was, not a lot but enough to know it was actually cutting the stubble.
I adjusted the shaving angle thought and the audio feedback increased dramatically on the second pass (across the grain) So far I would say the razor was mild and comfortable.
On to ATG. I found you can get the razor to be quite aggressive depending on the shaving angle. Saying that I did need multiple passes under my jaw line and neck area.
Now this is nothing out of the ordinary as with most new razors I use it takes me a few shaves to get this right.
I'm not going to give you a definitive yes or no answer on whether I'd buy one yet. I'll need a few more shaves with it.
The finished shave was good but could have been closer under the jaw line/ neck area.
I hope all the above makes some sense? Not feeling particularly inspired at the moment.
Cheers
Rob
