The E2 is 427 Cobra. Having shaved with my E2, (pics here www.theoriginalsafetytoo.com/thread/881/weekend-good), since Friday night, I must say there is no refinement to this razor like J3. It is much like a 427 Cobra, drop the clutch and mash the throttle, and pushed back into your seat with raw power of the machine. The E2 is a great shaver, powerful, fast and fun. I have had great shaves with this speed demon. But fair warning, as easy as this injector moves around your face, be careful, the injector can easily slide into your nostril before you can react. Don't ask, just trust me. Needless to say, I will not be using my timmer in that hole for a while.

E2 can provide an over-steering joy ride....You just have to be careful with those classic 'drift-demons'...Those 'E types' are before the computerize suspension units....lol

For the past month I've mostly been using my E-2 with a Personna 74 and Chicks. My slant sleeps, the Joris is in its box,faTip too.Yes my 30 odd other shavers all deliver, but the e-2 just out does them.Yeah it handles and on the flats , it has great top end. Tight , right and handles like a 24 hour GT 40 Mk. 4 and yeah the suspension lets me lay it down and punch out of a J hook. Its got a 427 R and the class look of a coach. 50 years ago I couldn't get a good shave from Schick.50 years later, this Gillette guy, has found out different.

I am finding that I am using my Schicks more and more. From blade duration and shave quality, these razors are hard to beat.
