    Karl, what's the difference between an E1 and an E2?

    Take a look at the spring. You'll see how it is flat instead of curving out and then back in. It is an exceptionally smooth shave as well. :happy036:

    @twhite is calling me an E1 hoarder. :happy097: This was pure luck which is why I am surprised you didn't find it first. :rofl:It was a BIN on one of my standard searches. The last one I found was in February and was personalized and sitting in a lot. This one is clean and was all by itself. I've never done a double take and pressed a BIN so fast in my life. :)

    Ahhhh! That's the difference!

    Is it any more or less aggressive than the E2?

    Congrats. I know Mark likes his Aluminum General. I think we are both in for a treat.

    I think it is at least equally aggressive, if not more - meaning it shaves really close. However, it is smoother than an early type or other E2s. :happy093:

    I decided to make the plunge and buy a stick of Arko - we'll see. While I was at it I also bought Proraso Green. I have the Red and like it - thought I would go for the green as well. Also I bought my first Reef Point Soap - classic barbershop scent. They should be here by the end of the week.

    Propaganda is a mouth watering scent, one of my favorites from Dr. Jon's.

    That Grandstaff Spicy Vetiver is a great peppery scent. I don't think you would be disappointed with the performance at all, a quality product for sure.

    I had to get this one. 30mm Tuxedo on a Butterscotch handle. APShave Co is fantastic to work with.
