Today I picked Voskhod out of my sampler pack. First time I ever used this blade. I use my EJ89 every time I try any new brand blade for the first time.
So many things happened for the first time today. I never thought I would be blown away by a DE blade. In a nutshell it felt like using a GEM PTFE blade. I believe all the hype now. I don't care about other blades in the sampler pack any more.
I was able to go ATG on my neck with EJ89. Usually I can only go ATG on neck with my Fasan slant, Mongoose or GEM type razors.
I didn't get any irritation or razor-burn. I didn't felt a need to use witch hazel. I usually need it whenever I use DE razor/blade. No sting using Alum.
I'm BBS everywhere, even on trouble areas. I didn't needed to buff on trouble areas. This never happens when I'm using any DE razor/blade.
In a nutshell it felt like I was using a GEM PTFE blade or Feather Professional SE blade in my EJ89. I used to think that GEM PTFE coated SE blades are the smoothest and sharpest blades on earth but these Voskhod have the same smoothness and sharpness. I don't know how they will perform on 2nd or 3rd use. But even if I can only get 2 decent uses out them, I'll be buying them in bulk. This is the only DE blade I need. This was the best DE shave I got to date. I think I should stop buying more DE razors because this blade will perform best with any razor, but I think Voskhod will only intensify my RAD. It seems I didn't need razors to get the most BBS shave, I just needed a blade that was right for me. If I can get 2 decent shaves out of 1 blade, I think I'll be buying a lifetime supply of these.
