I have a friend who has become interested enough in DE shaving to have purchased a Feather Portable but found it too aggressive for his untrained hands and is now afraid of it. It's a little strange because I found the Feather Portable to be pretty mild but I only have a Merkur Classic and Slant to compare it with. I told him I would ask around for advice on the mildest of mild razors for him to learn on. I have no experience with Gillettes but am I correct that the Gillette Blue Tip is supposed to be one of the milder razors around? Anything milder?
