The new handle looks very nice!
Very nice! Waaaaay more aesthetically pleasing than the first batch v2 handle!

I’ll admit though, they both look Star Wars-ish...like something born out of the Empire  Tongue

That's concerning. So far two guys didn't get a good shaves with the V2. Maybe buying the Vector may be a better choice however I don't like the handle.

As usual your YMMV.  I prefer the V2 over the Vector.  I find the V2 to be a great every day shaver.  From memory (I returned my Vector quite a while ago) both feel similar but for me I wasn't able get as close of a shave with the Vector.  With the V2 I get smooth, close and irritation free shaves.

Which version of the General did you try? Was it a V1 Stainless or the Aluminum?

I don't think it was the V2 that he had shaved with... I think it was an Aluminum or V1 Stainless that he had...

It was the V2.  I never had tried a V1.  Had tried the AC blades before in an original Cobra Classic, an Asylum RX, and an original Mongoose.  To be honest I’m seriously debating selling my V2 after one shave given the shaves I’ve gotten over the past couple days with the FB I received in the mail the other day.  I’ll probably give the V2 General a few more tries, but life’s to short for bad shaves lol.

Yes a FatBoy.   It’s been so good I haven’t even gotten around to using the OneBlade V1 I purchased that I know gives great shaves.
