Shave #5
The blade today is the Feather ProGuard. I had a terrible experience with this blade in the Alumigoose, but in the Asylum it shines. Far from being aggressive, it's smooth and efficient. It doesn't feel as sharp and direct as the Feather Pro and the KAI Titan Mild, but it was very efficient. And smooth. Very smooth. After four passes the shave is as close as those with the other blades. Not much sting from the alum, but the ASL stings a little bit more. Probably because the Speick ASL contains more alcohol than the Tüff I used for the previous shaves.
A very enjoyable shave, if only the head... yes.. I keep going on about it... it's too wide.
It would be a terrible waste not to give the ProGuard blade a second outing, so that's what I'll do tomorrow. Then it's 'goodbye' for the Asylum and time for my final verdict.
