Kismet Blade - Losing My Edge
A #Monthofweckoning
Beautiful shave today. The Kismet blade is so thin yet so stiff you can really keep a low angle and lighten the pressure. I have a light touch, anyway, but today I just let the edge lightly float on the skin and I have a BBS result. I'm going to tinker with this. A DE blade is thinner and should cut with less effort, but I've never had this feeling of lightness and efficiency with a DE blade.
I updated the album again today. I'm starting to see a tiny (and I mean sub-micron) bit of wear at the edge.
