Had my first shave over the weekend, i have 2 schicks a L and 1 from 1937 so i thought i would start with the L model as i have read they are a litle bit less aggressive which i thought would be better first shave, i liked the ease of use of this razor and it felt like, dare i say it, using a cartridge razor as it was light and easy to get into akward positions, though first impressions are not as good as a de razor/shave and perhaps the reason was thinking it was like a cartridge though i will use it all week to get better skilled up on it and will also try the 1937 further down the line.
