Tried it with Nacet tonight thanks to @RussellR5555 - he sent me some Nacets and Vokshod`s to try.
Nacet felt very harsh, did left side of my face with Nacets, small cuts in 3 place + some redness. Went back to Astra SP and back to heavenly smoothness.
I might actually have allergy to non Platinum blades or something. Everything but Astra SP doesn`t agree with me. Treet Platinum wasn`t too bad, bit of pulling but no harshness just a slight pulling.
Gonna try the Vokshods next.
Thanks again @RussellR5555

Ah not good.
So first shave with the Karve, D plate SB and 2 and a half days growth.
Razor looks great and a surprising bit of heft to it.
I don't know but I felt a little underwhelmed shaving with it. Don't get me wrong I got a DFS with it but not much feedback. Audio and blade feel.
With my Rockwell 6C plate 6 and Game changer 0.84 straight away they just felt right.
A bit more experimentation with the Karve and maybe different blades I think and I also have the the C plate OC to try.

The hope is that the OC versions are the giant killers....

I think I had my most comfortable shave tonight out every other shave I had in past, put new Astra SP in. Had 3 days growth on.
Before I’ve shaved with Astra SP on Karve OC but the blade had 2 shaves on it so brand new Astra was absolutely perfection.
I think 2 shaves per blade is good enough on Astra’s.
I don’t usually do 4 passes but it was so smooth I literally done the last 2 passes out of joy.

I'm going to use the OC 'C' plate for my next shave bugra101.
I'll use the same blade aswell and see how it goes.

Well what a difference a plate makes!
OC 'C' plate, fresh Permasharp blade and what a shave.
Smooth with some nice audio feedback which I like. Found sweet spot straight away and felt great.
Face still felt a little sensitive from my first shave with the SB 'D' plate so will give it 2 or 3 days for it to settle before I go with the OC again.
So glad I got the OC plate now.
