Ah ha!! The futur!
For some reason I'm struggling to understand, I grabbed the worst blade I used in the EJ to try in the futur.
I grabbed a boots branded persona and set about shaving.
I've had 2 shaves with this blade now. The 1st was truly amazing.
2nd shave I think I got my lather wrong (bluebeards) because the shave was smooth, but the futur kept almost sticking to the skin. Not snagging as I understand it, more like running your finger over a wet surface and hitting a drier patch. Hard to explain. But this has only happened once.
All in all, I love the weight, I love the noise, I can't wait to try other favourite blades. Shave quality wise, I get a better 2 pass shave than the EJ, but against the grain I am so far preferring the EJ. But that's with a blade I normally don't like. Against the grain with that blade in the EJ was pretty crap too!
Lastly, any thoughts in which blade to try next?
