I whole-heartedly concur my friend....But if I was blind folded....I'd have a hard time telling the difference between the E2s and the G8s that I've had...In fact, that G-8 that Fuzzy has had an Excaliber thing happening....
She demands a light touch just like the E2s.....
Of course finding the right blade razor combo can make a difference...I saw where
@Karl G was pontificating on the virtues of using personna/ems blades in the G Series as opposed to using the Chicks in the other Schicks and the PAL Injecto-matic...soooo, I tried an EMS/Personna in my G8 and it was damn near the same aggressive type shave I normally get from my E2.... So my hat is off to both of those in terms of aggression...But....
Tonight I shaved with my Original Hydro-magic I2 with an EMS/Personna and got a wonderful BBS...
You know...injectors an an interesting lot...Even the mild ones will give a fabulous shave...they aren't like DEs...
A mild Schick if used with the right touch will give a very easy BBS....You just have to be aware of what you want from it...At least these I series....Shoot, one of the worse shaving cuts I ever got was from a super mild L series Schick...I was early twenties, late for date...shaving too fast...BOOM! I took a chunk out of my chin that bled like....well do you remember the Black Knight in Monty Python's "Holy Grail" ?
I've still got the scar...only now it looks a little more like a chin dimple...Needless to say, I never made that date...There was a concert involved so being late wasn't an option.....I thought it would never stop bleeding....lol!
But the point is...Injectors do what you tell them...A mild one will become aggressive if you want it to...and an aggressive one can be very user friendly...Yep! The good Col. did invent a better mousetrap! In fact, his first...the Schick Repeaters are probably my all time favorites if I was forced to pick....
But I've never met a Schick Injector I didn't dig! And thats a fact!
