How goes the Streamline? Still less mild than Eld's?

Yes I think so, but it's been a few months since I used his.

Also, I might have used his with a PTFE blade on its 4th or 5th use, which is a sweet spot for me, so that could have played a role.

I also switch to his from some other GEM so the relative aggression could have been a factor.

Either way, we'll get to the bottom of it! I'm going to send mine to Eld once the honeymoon phase is over.
