Yay! I have my first New SC going through customs as we speak
Really look forward to testing if it bites too much - as I am a mild razor guy at heart

But hey, we had a few millord users last round!
Got this Deluxe today. The handle needs some fixing, but otherwise it's in pretty nice condition.
It's of the '15mm' variety - keen to see how it compares against my 17mm.

I prefer mild razors as well. I find the NEW SC to be very smooth, but fairly aggressive compared to the LC.
Ah, thanks for the info. I had thought it was the other way around, that SC's were less aggressive than LC's... Maybe I was too fast on the button. Well, lets see...
Well, the SC arrived today and beautiful it is. Great condition.
Let's see tomorrow how it shaves, will let you know!
WOW, are they all users or any that you will not use because of their nice condition ?I really like the NEW each razor is different from the others whether it is the case, serial #, base plate , cap style , handle, finish or head/handle combo .My interest in the NEW came from the excellent posts I read when I first joined B&B .Thank you @ Dr Awkward and others

Saaaaweeet!Sweet. I have a few NEWs to use during this event! I will be spending two weeks down at the National Boy Scout Jamboree in WV during July. So I will pack at least one NEW in my kit! Should be an appropriate choice for that occasion.
Here are a few candidates for July's festivities. L-R: 7 O'Clock Brit Flat Bottom, Gillette Brit Flat Bottom, Delta Echo LC, Gold SC, LC, RFB
