    If I had to rank them right now I would pick the Dart. I'll dedicate the rest of the week to the Mamba .70 and see how it compares.

    There is no rush. I'm using the Sabre right now. Trouble is there are to many great razors out there both vintage and new.

    No worries, Doug. Your post is better than the one I put up.

    I've been to the ATT website three times to look at that razor since @preidy posted that pic.

    The L2 plate for the Blackland Sabre came out this year 2018.
    Wonder if that qualifies as a new razor. It made a big difference in how close a shave I get with the Sabre.

    Without a doubt, the Blackland Vector. I don't like the handle, and it needs larger lather holes,

    but it's still by far the best designed razor of the year. Nothing else even comes close.

    I like the Blackland Vector handle. It works for me. They did engineer a different handle and head. These are the reasons I pick the Vector. It also provides an outstanding shave.

    Fatip Piccolo...It carries on the tradition of the original Gillette with a minimal gap OC design

    There are 2 razors of the year in my opinion. SE goes easily to the Blackland Vector and the DE of the year would go to the the Karve.
    Soap of the year will go to Oleo El Caballero.
    My brush of the year would be Wild West Brushworks.

    missed out on the karve due to a budget shortfall, so next year it may be.. cool thread..

    You may find a 30DC member near you who would let you use their Karve for a time.
