iKon 102 slant / Bolzano Superinox (2). Started with the Bolzano, but like the Kai, also turns out to be a horrible blade for me. Just to see if it wasn't my lather that was the culprit, halfway through the first pass I switched to a trusty Astra SP and it was smooth as silk after that.

The first Bolzano I ever tried was superb, and lasted me close to ten excellent shaves. All the ones I have used after that have been subpar. So it seems that instead of the occasional dud, they somehow produce the occasional masterpiece. Go figure…

Yeah, go figure. That is quite odd. This particular blade was not smooth at all, very tuggy.
