Baby Smooth (Razorock)
I’ve never liked this razor until today. For years it’s been buried away at the back of the cupboard under a pile of soaps. My first shaves with it weren’t very friendly: too much blade feel, not enough weight. I couldn't get comfortable with it. And it was hard to get the blade centered on the head. There was always a hot side and a cold side. All that changed today, though, when I put a Derby Extra blade in it. For reasons unknown to me, this blade just fit. Both sides of the double edge blade were easy and comfortable. Truth be told, I really hate Derby Extra blades in all my other razors. It’s just not sharp enough. But in this Baby Smooth it works a charm.
