As a matter of fact.... ;)
I assume you mean my opinion of the IB Adjustable. I got it last week and have used it several times. Performance-wise I like it: while the...
Late to this thread but I want to toss in my two cents. :) Anyone who's followed me for any length of time know I like adjustables. I have...
For me it's mainly the lined handle can get kind of slippery in my hand. The Variant's textured handle grips much better. The plastic knob is...

I've got an article up on Sharpologist today about the new breed of synthetic shave brushes. I think they've really come a long way in a short...
