  6. First shave with the Clix was a little unnerving, it's very mild and finnicky about angle (resemblance to the Simplex purely superficial), this second much much better. I see a North Shore head replate in the offing. The 30g head does benefit from a heavier handle then the stock Bakelite one.[​IMG]

  7. It’s not bad. This one is English. It’s very mild and head heavy, but that’s about it. I kinda enjoyed it.

  8. i have never used one but i imagine a cheaper feel in the hand. my birthyear razor is a black handled superspeed but it doesn t feel as nice as my 1965 flaretip rocket, even though they both have the smaller head.

  15. Yeah, I’m familiar. I used to like Punch Cigars; CAO and AVO too. Lately I stick to the very occasional Monte Cristo.
