Greetings All,
Monday shave
Four day's growth and warm shave
Preparation – Showered then face washed with Clique Liquid facial soap (mild)
Soap: Molton Brown Shaving Soap
Razor: Rockwell 6C (4P)
Blade: Lord Super Chrome (1st)
Brush: RazoRock 400 (face lather)
Post Shave: Hot then cold water rinse, Alum, Nivea 2 Phase followed by Michael Kors EDT.
Lord Super Chrome Test
Day 1
My current rankings – with the Lord Rainbow taking the No 1 position:
1. Lord Rainbow
2. Shark SS
3. Lord Platinum
4. Gillette Nacet
5. Astra SP
6. Dorco Stainless (New Platinum)
7. Perma-Sharp Super
Today I started the Lord Super Chrome test. The packaging is exactly the same as the Lord Platinum but the actual blade does not feel as thick. Great first shave, no weeper or nicks but felt smoother than the Lord Platinum, but not as forgiving as the Lord Rainbow. Hacked through my whiskers easier than the Rainbow not as many multiple strokes needed. With very little Alum burn, so far, an encouraging start.
Looking forward to the rest of the week
I have selected some more blade for future tests – more lessor used blades (found some more Lords to try) and will ‘test' some blade I have already tried. However, if anyone has a suggestion, please let me know and I track down and add the blade to my list.
Cheers,
Brian
