Where are the people in this and other threads, who ran them off? Or were they all kicked to the curb like I was?
People got busy with kung flu and things. Hopefully some will find their way back.

I find for me this to be an aggressive razor with a new blade as much as any. While my first love is the BMMOC or MMOC, the Schick will draw blood quicker for me than the GEM. Perhaps I am not as cautious.
And, when shaving around the nose and nostrils, the Schick just fits into those spaces better. It can also draw blood in those same spaces...LOL!!
The E3 I use is midline aggressive feeling. I have a E2 that is full on better watch it. Razors of the same model can feel different. No idea why.
The first one I found came in a case. It had been flattened so that I had to hold it horizontal to work well. At that time I didn't know the angle was not correct. Upon receiving a second one, I immediately noticed the angle was different. So, what I am suggesting, it's the angle that's important in rendering a good shave.
Have you checked the angle on the one's you've found? Are the the same?

I can not see any difference in the angle. Both give great shaves. One is just more blade feelish.

The very concept of mild and agreesive excapes me. Whether I am using a SE or unmentionable, including those with which I must sharpen, the skill is what does the job.

I think a few at least were run off. It's a shame really.

He messaged me on Oct 5th and this is his ending in the message.

Well I hope he comes back. And I'm sure I'm not the only one.
