The ATT S1 with an Astra Green on its second shave. I wanted to compare the shave to yesterday's shave with the Astra in the Muhle R89. The feel was nearly identical. Which is a real compliment to ATT. Even though it's a slant it feels as mild as the R89. However, it was considerably more aggressive, as I got several weepers, which I think might have been due to my using a tad too much pressure or maybe overshaving. The S1 remains my fave of my stainless steel razors.

Freddy, BadDad,
I am changing my excuse a bit after considerable reasoning with myself.
I am quite strict about removing and depositing used blades. I must have done that and then removed it from the bank for below stated reasons.
After receiving a new - old razor I always soak it in alcohol for a while and then carefully remove the blade.
It was straight out of my blade bank where it had been deposited as soon as the razor arrived.
I wanted the 'Tweet' name as it seemed appropriate to the shave I received with a new GEM Stainless but I did not have a fresh 'Tweet'.
I don't like handling a stranger's used blade as a cut with one of them might bring unwanted developments. And I am a rather accomplished self slicer. Me and good old Vincent.
