    It is such an amazing razor. As you, me, Frank and many others say, you do need to have a good touch to use it, but if you do it can be effortlessly good.
    I haven’t tried Noble Otter, it does look a high quality soap, and that label is stunning. It’s a shame you aren’t enamoured of the scent.

    Kismet blades aren't that sharp in my opinion. Sometimes I even feel they are very dull. Feather, BIC, Wilkinson Sword (Germany) blades are much sharper than Kismet.

    • @IAMCDB
      @IAMCDB  3 роки тому

      I guess that's why they call this a YMMV hobby. With the weck being so light, a sharp blade is essential. The Kismet just erases whiskers without any hint of tugging for me. Many other feel the same way. That said, blade preference is quite subjective.
