    A shave to forget:angry019:
    So tonight i decided to bust out my E2 and give myself a nice shave for work tomorrow. This is all good and everything, I love my E2. I loaded a new blade in it as I had 3 nice shaves with the previous blade.
    Stupid me decided to give the Crew I have another go. This is the non lathering stuff. I used the shave oil that came with the Crew setup.

    The first few strokes were fine but this stuff starts to tryout too fast. By the end of my first pass I was wetting my face to try and keep it lubed up. To no avail. Got a couple little weepers. The reduction sucked too.

    So I foolishly tried a second pass. This time I made my face really wet before applying this stuff:angry032: Second pass just as bad got even more weepers. I ended my shave there as I do not like bleeding that much:( So I had to break out my pencil and start clotting stuff.

    The only upside is the aftershave Balm. It is nice smelling and has a little menthol in it. I will not be using this stuff again.

    Yes I checked the blade. It is in fine condition and not loaded in wrong. That was the first thing I checked.

    Any how I finally found something about wet shaving I DO NOT LIKE. Lesson learned.

    Yes, scotch can make a fine post shave follow-up...I usually like a wee dram of single-malt straight up to follow a terrible shave and 2 to follow a great shave...:happy108:

    Got a decent but not great shave with the Schick M3 adjustable this morning. It was a brand new Chick blade installed which I find causes some irritation the first use. I dont see the adjustable making my rotation though as I just dont like the longer handles on the later models.

    I just couldn't Go Back to using a single blade in my Schick Adjustable after experiencing the Wonders of Twin blades...A Personna blade turns up the Volume a Tad in the Adjustable as well I reckon...;)

    Really liked the shave this morning with the KC and the Pro blade.

    The KC is an interesting razor to me...it's obviously huge...almost to the point of crossing the line into becoming a novelty item...but I find myself really liking it.
    I thought that I might get an after-market handle but don't see the need for one as I've really taken to the standard one.
    It's not a razor where you can let your guard down though - if you do it might bite. So while the shaves themselves require a bit more 'attention' and might not move you into that relaxing 'zen' place in the morning...you will, however face the world with a very, very clean shaved face :)

    Nothing sexy about the E2....except for maybe my face after getting such a smooth BBS with it....:happy108:

    Ahhh Haaa! I can't believe I said that.....would have made a great old TV commercial for one of these....But I can't keep my hands off my face after using this razor....My wife seems to behave the same way....}8^0) Maybe there is something to it.....

    Yeah it was a good one. 2 passes, no touch ups required. The aftershave howled a bit, so think I may have been a bit heavy handed. You are right about this razor's appeal though. It feels almost perfect in hand and the smallish head is a breeze to shave with.
    All I need now is a C3 to help decide which one shaves better.:lyrtuy5:
