    I like the way the 1/2 DE blade fits like a glove! You will not experience blade chatter. I gaurantee it. Looking forward to your review on the most expensive shavette.

    I will definitely let you know. I thought I would not like the long tail but it gives my pinkie finger a nice resting area. The jimp area (I think that is what it is called) is nicely done and very grippy.

    Overall the razor is amazing.

    Stay tuned.

    I'm thinking about starting a go fund me account for the poor and destitute in need of a $350.00 shavette. :happy102:

    Joe, the machine work and tolerances on this baby are amazing. I think you noticed the machined pockets for the curved parts of the snapped blade.. The scale/handle is one piece machined from aluminum.

    I love everything about it but the price but this is a quality piece.

    Awesome shave, Joe. Is the Wade and Butcher new to the den? I don't remember seeing those nice looking scales. Take care.
