Mystified is the perfect word. For his very first shave my son, then 15, picked up an R41 loaded with a new Feather off my sink (without asking me) and got an excellent shave with no red stuff. Yet there are very experienced people who have trouble with it. Mystery indeed.

Took delivery of EJ DE89L this morning, what a stunning razor..... cant wait to get come and give it a go.

Now what blade to use.
Derby
Astra
Feather
Bic
Wilkinsons to name a few...

No point in starting a new thread really..

What a great shaver that EJ is... used the 7 O'clock blade and it was great.. still BBS the next day whereby normally i have light stubble. Love it!!!
