Lots of good products to enjoy in wet shaving these days. Blackland Razors and whollykaw are among my very favorites.
Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

- Gillette Sensor Excel (2 blades)
- Eufros Kasbah
- Omega 31052
- Speick+Korres
Hard to choose between the two-bladed and three-bladed versions of the Sensor cartridges. If forced to, I think I'd still pick up the three-bladed version over this one, because even though this older twin blade model appears to me as a bit milder on the skin, achieving the desired results is a bit more time consuming (for me) with this one than with its more modern sibling. Being more time consuming somehow defeats the whole purpose of using a cartridge razor, at least for me. I usually reach for them when time is a factor... or when it's so early in the morning that I need an "autopilot" equipped razor .

In terms of smoothness and comfort, how would you compare L2 with L1?
Sourav, both versions are quite smooth, but I would say the L1 is smoother only in that it has less blade exposure/feel. However, if you want a more effective shave, than the L2 would be a better plate, depending on subjective factors for each individual.
You should be aware that the L2 plate has a substantial increase in blade exposure and it may be a bit too much for some if they find the L1 to be perfect.
