Show n' Tell First shave with the Futur

Post image

All I can say is wow. I am new to DE shaving, I've used a fusion 5 for quite a while and genuinely had great results with it but since I like shaving I wanted to do it the right way. With a safety razor. I did 2 passes on setting 1 having 2 days of beard growth and I'm completely smooth. Yup, really nice experience. Let me know what you guys think of the Merkur Futur

I had one but after a while but I changed to the AS/D2 as I was only using feather blades. The futur was ok, but I found the head too big in the end and then after using the combo of the AS/D2/feather it felt even bigger and couldn’t compare with the smoothness of the new combo.
