And it's not scheduled to get here until next Thursday. I may not buy an OC plate. I always forget how long International packages take to get delivered.
i am being nice sir, me not having a karve is ok at present but i enjoy others enjoying them..when i get one once i have completed my gillette set i will get a b plate sb and oc with a 3" handle..
05/23/19 Brass Handle Synthetic Brush Salsa Bowl / Timeless bowl scuttle Stirling Noir Shaving Soap Karve – 3.25-inch Handle, Plate D - Open Comb Voskhod & Astra SP Nivea Post Balm Stirling Noir After Shave Awesome shave this morning with some solid hitters. Started out with a Voskhod that was used but it was just too tuggy so I switched to an Astra SP. The Astra was a lot smoother. I must have had more mileage on the Voskhod than I realized. I have not shaved with the Karve in a while so I felt it was time to get it of the box. The more I use the OC the more I like it. No weepers or nicks and the alum was quiet this morning. The last few times I have been using the Karve a little visitor would crawl into the bathroom and quickly crawl out, eluding me to no avail. I can honestly say that I caught the little visitor this morning. That rights guys, I caught the baby! I finished up with some Nivea post balm and Stirling Noir aftershave. Take care and have a great day.
I'm going to have to stop reading this forum because now I have a desire to own one of these Karve DE razors. I'm thoroughly satisfied with my Mercur Futur and Ikon X3 razors, but I am really tempted by this razor. I think that I will read a little more and watch the Youtube reviews on it before making a decision.
It looks like once the OC head was released most of this thread on the razor has been about the OC. Tough decision because I have never owned an open comb razor.
Both plates are great. If you don't mind buying used be on the look out. That is how I acquired mine and saved some money. I mean what can go wrong with it? It is solid brass.
