Bought a Merkur 33C, a synthetic Parker brush, and a mühle soap bar thar I received today.

Not as close a shave as I'm used to, but my skin feels a lot less irritated than it used to after a shave. Cut myself twice, on my upper lip and on the underside of my chin.

another +1 on Feather. I got a pack of different brands, 5 razor blades of each, and Feather was the sharpest and lasted a fairly long time too.

    Razor blades are very YMMV thing. Lots of people like Feathers. I would choose a 4" angle grinder over a Feather blade myself. Even my Slim Adjustable won't make them work.

    I have a taste for Gillette Silver Blues and Sputniks. But those are getting harder to find these days. so I have found Racers from India to be a pretty good replacement. But my Slim can get at least a decent shave out of most blades.
