So how mild are we talking Andreas? EJ 89 mild or progress on 3? Or ATT M/R/H?
Dunno. Never tried the EJ89 or an ATT. Progress on 2 maybe? Feather mild? There two ways to look at 'mild'. Mild can be non-bitey or inefficient. It's non-bitey for sure. I'm still happy with the shave, so it's not inefficient...
 
Progress on a 2, OK thanks that gives me some perspective. By mild I refer to the blade face feel. Is the blade apparent as with the Wolfman minus any chatter or do you hardly feel it?
 
I was thinking, since part of the purpose for the pass-around is to provide Andrew (@Hone) with some feedback on the razor but also for him, I believe, to after the test run inspect/assess the razor - maybe it would be useful to provide some consistent data points back to Andrew so that he knows both what the razor has gone through (cleaning/sterlization methods, etc) and also what users feel were the best and 'worst' features of the razor?

IF so, maybe something like the strawman sample that each person could fill out (I just added some sample columns but if interest maybe @Hone could chime in on what data points he'd like for testers to add).

Just an idea :)

That is one hell of a paragraph long sentence!

Hmmm... I'd say you can hardly feel it. I'll pay more attention to that tomorrow. Maybe it's just the novelty of feeling a head that heavy, maybe it's the fact that for the last few days I've used the R41. Now that has face feel and a half. Coming from there most razors will feel mild by comparison.

Nice idea
 
Sounds good so far I cannot use an aggressive razor. But every handle I've got is 100mm. Enjoying this and its only just started. I think a spreed sheet/ table a good idea easy to see likes and disliked.
