minus-squaredjundjilaOPMAlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·7 months agoHow goes the Streamline? Still less mild than Eld’s?
minus-squarewaldenMAlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·7 months agoYes I think so, but it’s been a few months since I used his. Also, I might have used his with a PTFE blade on its 4th or 5th use, which is a sweet spot for me, so that could have played a role. I also switch to his from some other GEM so the relative aggression could have been a factor. Either way, we’ll get to the bottom of it! I’m going to send mine to Eld once the honeymoon phase is over.
