Best praise vs top criticism for Gillette Super Speed
“* Razor: Gillette Super Speed, 40s Style (NDC, No Notch) * Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (2 of 8 Total Passes/4 Total Shaves) * Brush: Yaqi Green Obsidian 2-Band Badger * Lather: Mike’s Natural Soaps Bergamont, Orange & Ylang-Ylang * Aftershave: Zingari Man The Magician Black and white inspired by Mike’s simple branding. An excellent two pass shave with two lovely orange based scents.”
“Yeah I’ve only had one shave so I can’t give it a completely fair review, but I will say I tried the 4 plate and felt quite a bit of tugging and flipped it to the 2 side and it was barely getting anything done. To the point that I finished the shave with my 1955 super speed. But like I said, I’ll have to experiment with it and get used to the extra weight etc. But I still hate Rockwell as a company for the crap they pulled on me when I bought the razor”
