    I don't have one but I do have a Blackland Dart. Andrew @Linuxguile did a side by side comparison and found them to be comparable.

    This is something that I have discovered over the last couple of weeks too! I dare not do long strokes with my Fatip and R41

    Congratulations on taking your shaves up a notch. Bet it feels good!

    I'm pretty sure he thought that the R41 had the edge... You know this means you need one. Plus it's got that cool, unique toothed comb thing going on!

    Thanks James and congrats to you as well. You definitely want to treat those aggressive razors with respect. However, once you have solid technique, as you do, you can shave with any razor!

    When I was a oil field diver I would do 60-90 often, longest was 120 days, i think I started to go a little nuts at that point. 13 and one isnt that bad. $ adds up fast with all that ot also.

    120 consecutive is a long haul. 13 and one isn't bad at all. 84 hour work weeks does make for nice paychecks.

    Wow. That's a brutal schedule if it continues for long. Hope you get a break soon, Jim.

    I'm all for hard work, but I don't see how companies can legitimately require folks to work that many days in a row. 13 on, 1 off is no picnic. It would be manageable if it doesn't go on for long. IMO, employees need a break in order to be fit for duty, and employers don't want to chance someone coming to work dog tired, getting injured, injuring someone else, etc... With an aging workforce and a stricter focus on process and personal safety, the times are changing...

    Stay safe, Jim. :)

    True..but look at what those type of work schedules do to families. As I get older I look back and see that family is a lot more important than work. There needs to be a balance and employers need to understand that.
