An application for those who have already received the razor or at least the invoice: sorry, out of curiosity, given that on the Wolfman site the official prices are not present at this time, how much was billed respectively for the head, the handle and the stand ( if they are here)? I speak of a razor SS. Thanks

I speak of a razor SS. ThanksDid you go to to the shop SS part, as the prices were on that part? This brings up my thought/question. Does he charge sales tax on top of the end price? Oh also I don't see the higher gaps on this part but I'm pretty sure the price is correct on into the higher gaps as well. Hope this helps.

Excuse me for suggesting this if obvious, Have you tried riding the cap/higher shave angle?
Blade drag could cause irritation on some efficient razors if the shave angle is too low.
Feather blades sometimes can have the same effect on me in efficient razors,
Perhaps also look to the blades you use?
I haven't really noticed what kind of angle I am using - I usually just find the angle that shaves. But I will try riding the cap next week.
I know you know how to shave lol, try a more cap oriented angle. It may be too high of a gap for you too. You’d never know it on this thread but there are a bunch of folks that prefer under 1.15 gapped heads.

Different strokes for different folks.(09-28-2019, 12:15 AM)iamsms Wrote:(09-28-2019, 12:09 AM)Starman Wrote: I can't comment on the Wr2 specifically,I have tried 3 blades so far - Wizamet, Feather and Personna Red for the current run.

You didn't say how often you use the 1.15.
Maybe your hair grows in many directions...so you could try to feel the stubble direction and make adjustments.
I end up employing some pretty bizarre strokes as a result.
My hair indeed grows in a many weird directions and I also use fairly weird variety of strokes.

It did occur to me that maybe 1.15 is higher than necessary for your face but when you said that after finishing up with 1.15
you still had stubble, I had to discard that possibility.

So I would suspect using a specific known size shim stock would be the order of the day. Perhaps automotive feeler gauge stock ?(09-28-2019, 05:59 PM)iamsms Wrote:Consider adding a shim or 2 to increase the efficiency(09-28-2019, 06:12 AM)Tester28 Wrote: You didn't say how often you use the 1.15.Every day, three passes, except when I am out for vacation (like today).
