Just a great shaver is the Brass General. Warm and easy on the skin regardless of the AC blade being used. It is on the heavier side but, it just makes the job of shaving that bit more easier as the weight of the General does most of the work. The Stirling Gin & Tonic provided excellent protection, glide and slickness with a nice mentholated touch together with the splash to give a great cooling sensation in the heat during yesterday's shave.
As of this posting there hasn't been an SE razor that combines mild yet efficient feeling cutting with a buttery smoothness. The Paradigm SE Ti is the only razor that I owned that was as smooth and milder feeling but, only worked with a Feather Pro Super for me.
The Brass General for me is in a class by itself.
