I dont know if I like the eShave cream, seemed a bit too foamy to me, but have since read that maybe a little less water will help that. Might have to give it another try. . . Overall the shave was good though. . .

The new King of Shaves Azor razor did a great job on my cheeks and chin. However, it worked terribly on my neck. Perhaps it's the angle of the head geometry, combined with the fact that my neck hairs basically lay almost parallel to my skin, but I couldn't get the blades to cut my neck hair at all. I'll keep trying it with both traditional creams/soaps as well as the KoS gel/serum solutions, but I had to move to the Progress to do my neck. But as I said, it did a perfect, irritation-free job on the rest of my beard area.
