Schick Proline AC type blades

Tried a proline with my Mongoose today, and it was a revelation, at least when measured against the same Razor with a Kai Pink. Early days, but it's looking good. Wondering now if I need a new Rx at all.

You already know (?) where I stand - used virtually every AC blade in my Mongoose and an SE1 - I own over 100 Prolines & nothing else.
 
I got mine from Connaught shaving in the UK, and they are a revelation... Love 'em!! Work lovely with the Mongoose, lovely with the General, waiting to see the result with the Rx, but the word is they should be fab!!

Shave #19 w/ a Proline in my Stainless General on 4 days growth yesterday and I'm still looking for that 5 O'clock shadow to show up this morning!! Easily on par with my Titanium Timeless .95 SB for smoothness and efficiency. Too bad the Timeless gets 4/1 ratio of shave time, I seriously might have to re-think that one...

Popped a fresh Schick Proline in the ATT SE1 today, I can easily one and done this blade, perfect right out of the wrapper!
 
next week i plan on using a proline in my MR SE razor...havent used it in a while since i've been enamored with my Gem razor the past month or so.
 
Haven't looked at razors or blades in almost a year now. I put my Proline in my General and I shave. That's it. It's kinda sad because it's almost like this combo killed the hobby aspect of it for me. I can buy things but I don't think they will improve my shave.

I guess there's always ASAD...

I feel the same about the ATT SE1 with a Proline!

I too load the Proline in my General and it is a great. I also love my ATT SE1 but it's one of the early ones that the Proline won't fit into it.

Thanks to Anthony, aka @rabidus, the Proline is the only blade I use in my SS General. He sent me 4 blades a year ago and I just put the 4th one in my razor earlier this year. I bought a cartridge of them shortly after trying the ones he sent and its still setting there unused so far. I'm 14 shaves in on the 4th blade and usually get 20+ shaves per blade... I'm guessing I have enough blades for the next 5-6 years at least with the little time I spend with my General since picking up the Ti Timeless earlier this year!! I do enjoy the combo very much though.

I have enough Prolines for several lifetimes.
 
So I take it you prefer the timeless to your General? Are there any SE you prefer over the Timeless?
I kept the SS General because I always get such a great shave from it, especially with a Proline in it. I do use it a couple times a month just to break it up a bit but the Timeless gets the majority of the shaves. The Timeless is the 1st razor I've ever used that I don't get a 5 O'Clock shadow for about 36 hrs so I only have to shave every other day...
