First real shave with the new RazoRock razor.
This is not a review, just an initial impression.
Without doing a side-by-side shave (yet), I can't say just how similar it is to the 34C other than "It's similar".
I'm a fan of mild razors, so the 34C is a pleasure to use. The 34C is also very efficient for me, so my hope for the RazoRock GOAT is it's a razor with:
Points 3 and 4 are easy wins. For points 1 and 2, my initial impression is that I'm going to love this razor. There is a tad bit of blade feel, but it's solidly in the mid to low end. And the efficiency -- wow. I'm probably not doing it any favors by using a blade with 58 uses, but this is a very close shave. No aftershave feedback, either.
