A bit of a good news/bad news shave tonight I'm afraid. Firstly the shave, which was outstanding due to the software and hardware. However I managed to drop the Futur razor and brush in the sink scuffing both the brush handle and top cap of the razor.
To complete my night I dropped the indefatigable Personna 74 blade behind the radiator and finally onto the floor. Upon inspection there were visible chips on the edge and on shave 28 it was still going strong as well. I was quite looking forward to seeing how many shaves I could comfortably get from it.
Great shave though , so Personna 74 I salute you!

The '24 is still a rougher shave for me compared to the '14. It doesn't really look like it, but I can feel so much more blade on my face from this razor than I ever can from the 1914.

Neither of these are as good of a blade delivery mechanism as the OneBlade is though. I think I will be back to that pivoting, remarkable modern SE that simply shaves brilliantly and truly shines in those tough spots.

Freddy, Do you ever get a burning sensation at the end of your Steampunk shave?

primotenore, no I have not. I like the Steam Punk a lot, have no issues with it, and really like finishing the shave with the Steam Punk Aftershave Gel. How bad is your problem with the burning sensation?
