Lower score after shaving - SHARPCO - 07-07-2019
https://www.refinedshave.com/razor-blade-sharpness-summary/
"Due to this I suggest the initial coating covers the sharp edge resulting in a lower reading, and as the coating is worn away it exposes the sharp edge for a sharper reading. I have also had lots of feedback from people confirming they often feel like the second shave is sharper than the first for many blades."

First day, the score of my Feather DE razor was 20 BESS but few days later it's 15 & 20 BESS.
