Experiment 1: Kai Captain Titan Mild Protouch MG
Wow! Fantastically easy shaves Sunday and Monday, with the Protouch in the Razorock Hawk v3. Up until Sunday I had never been able to go ATG under my nose with any razor other than an adjustable injector. The Protouch in the Hawk felt effortless, which can make it easy for this shaver to get careless. But all went well. After 2 days, I am very pleased with the results. Compared to the Schick Prolines, the Protouch doesn't seem to shave as close, so the tradeoff in efficiency is comfort.
I think the Colonial General v2 shaves closer than the Hawk v3. Both leave me feeling good after several shaves, whereas the Vector typically gave me a first great shave (building hope that I finally was getting the hang of it), then followed up with irritation after 3 or more consecutive days' shaves (dashing those hopes on the rocks of despair!).
Today I moved the Protouch to the General and had another marvelously comfortable shave. First impressions are that it is a closer shave than the Hawk. However, I will wait until tomorrow morning's shave to make that pronouncement final.
