Tried a proline with my Mongoose today, and it was a revelation
In terms of my holy grail of smoothness and closeness for a bbs after 2 passes, I have to agree it's certainly up there my friend.Best AC blade hands down!
next week i plan on using a proline in my MR SE razor...haven't 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...

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.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.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that!

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...So I take it you prefer the timeless to your General? Are there any SE you prefer over the Timeless?
