Today I used my ER-1914 razor. I haven't used this razor in awhile and forgot how nice this shaves. This is one of my favorite razors for sure. In my top 3 razors. I used it with some Erasmic cream and it was beautiful smooth shave. If you haven't tried this razor yet you have to try and get your hands on one. They are one of the great classics.
