I just had my first shave with a Voskhod blade in a Muhle R41, what an unbelievably awful experience it was for me, absolute agony and terrible to boot. In the end i gave up trying to get a decent shave out of it and stuck in a Gillette silver blue to do a fourth pass.
Now looking around the internet these blades seem quite highly regarded, so what the hell happened for me? I've only used four different types of blade so far, Personna (okay but not great), Feather (fantastic), Gillette silver blue (on par with a feather but slightly longer lasting) and the Voskhod (enough said already!).
Does anyone reckon it may be worth persavering and trying them again? maybe a duff blade? or just chalk it up to not for me and move on?
