Single Edge Sunday - What Will You Use?

Oh Superman!

... and it takes skin of steel to shave with this puppy! :wink2:

My first attempt at SE Sunday today. I was PIF'ed a Bullet Tip, and started using it on Wednesday.

I only used the SE for the first pass today. I had 3 days of growth, and either the bullet tip really doesn't work with that much, or the blades don't last nearly as long as I've been lead to believe. It was only number 4 with that blade though. I set it down after pass one and finished the next two passes with my NEW LC and an Astra SP.

Gem push-button / Gem SS PTFE (lost count, somewhere around 8)
- I used a slim-headed Feather Weight yesterday for the first time, and this pushbutton today for the first time. THey're similar. Both very mild, but comfortable. hard to get BBS, but could be relatively reckless with the razor without fear of nicks. At the margin, I think the push-button felt slightly smoother during the shave, but paradoxically also might have left a slight bit of irritation, which was zero with the Feather Weight. Still, we're talking very slight differences across the board. At least near as I can tell, one shave in with each.
