The shave today was not very satisfactory. A new blade in the Easy Rider Schick felt like a very dull blade. It did not cut very well.
This was the worst shave I have had yet. I will not write off this razor yet, I will try another new blade tomorrow. This shave I would not class as even close, it is more like a shave with an electric razor.
