A new razor comming

[bartje-p]

I know we are not allowed to write about our experiences so far, just curious how all the other testers are doing? I have seen some other sotd with this razor, so i know i am not alone in testing. So far, I have had 2 shaves with the t8. Somewhere next week I will try the t9.

Very curious about your opinions, so my patience will be tested!

I managed to take a chunk out of my cheek last weekend with a GC .84 Jaws so having to let it fully heal before I even start 🥲

1 with the t10 so far.

Pretty sure you’re supposed to start with the lower numbers first?
Unless that is your lowest one?

Lowest one on 7 days of growth?

 

[Holyzeus]

Pretty sure he asked to start on lower numbers regardless
I’m not at home

 

[Holyzeus]

Yep, supposed to start with lower numbers

Yes, I know, but I didn't evaluate anything yet. It was just a first check to see the upper limits of the razor.

Will then go to t8 for the next shave. I didn't want to break the rules.

The reason why I asked all of you to start with the t8, then t9, and t10 at the really end is because the t8 is the mildest of them all. This is to give you time to adapt to the new characteristics of the razor and progressively move on towards more efficient options, to minimize potential nicks, cuts, and irritation.

Not following that order will not jeopardize the testing, so it's not a big deal. It was just a "safety" measure, so you don't shave off your cheekbones during the very first trial.

None of the rules were broken.

The most important aspect I really must ask you to follow is to perform the final rating of a head during the fourth shave with that head the earliest.

The prototypes haven't yet reached me in the US. USPS said they would be delivered yesterday, but didn't get here, so now it looks like they will arrive Monday.

There are still four parcels in transit. Hopefully all of them will be delivered next week the latest.

I’m home middle of next week so I’ll start testing once I’m back. Sorry, was meant to be back Thursday but something came up and I had to change plans. Razor is at mine waiting (wife opened parcel for me as I couldn’t wait to see lol)

So the order rating will be: t8, 9, 10 ?
