My good shaving friend Paul has lent me his Streamline so that I can see what all the fuss is about.
I hear the highly coveted Eclipse Red Ring DE isn't much of a shaver and wonder whether the same applies to this Holy Grail SE.
I always wanted a pair of Adidas Gazelles and when I finally got some after waiting 20 years, I discovered that they were great but not as good as some other trainers that I'd owned.
But I NEEDED to have those Gazelles so I could say I'd tried them and my idealisation of them could end.
Sometimes the only way to let go of something is to embrace it completely - so will I be disillusioned by the Streamline?
I cannot imagine it shaving better than my ten-a-penny British ER 1912 but let's find out...
