Hi guys. Week 1 of my intro to DE wetshaving. I switched to a Feather today from a Derby and wow. Maybe I've improved technique or I had a poor Derby, but the difference was very noticable. Super smooth, no burn, although I did manage to nick my chin when I spaced out.

I can't believe I was happy with a Fusion all these years.

It's amazing isn't it. I'm loving DE as well. I hated the Fusion but was a Mach III and Sensor Excel guy. I couldn't believe the Art of Shaving endorsed Fusion, but then when P&G bought AOS, it became a little more clear as to why.

The Merkur 38 is my daily razor. I have a 38M. And it's fantastic!

I can't wait to get my Merkur 38. Apparently the place I ordered from doesn't actually keep them in stock so they ordered it direct from Merkur in Germany. It was supposed to arrive in New York on Friday and ship out to me, but it didn't. :mad:

The 38C is my Go-To razor. Gives me the best shaves out of all I've tried. Enjoy yours!
