Anyone seen the Baikal razors out of Russia? Looks like a machined Rockwell. They have several aluminum versions and a stainless steel version. I may get the aluminum version when they get some more back in stock.

I like the comment about the international razor agressiveness table.......wonder where this "table" is? Have y'all seen it?

"Each number on the stove corresponds to a degree according to the international razor aggressiveness table, so that it is easier for the owner to navigate."

HomeLikeShaving is pleased to present Baikal, a safe razor from a team of engineers for classic shaving. The razor is made based on the numerous reviews of people who use the notorious Rockwell 6s razor. Most use plates 3, 4 and 6 on this razor, but many lack the aggressiveness of the 6th plate. Therefore, we developed “Baikal” taking into account all needs.

The basic set includes two types of plates:

• 1st plate - No. 3 and No. 4
• 2nd plate - No. 6 and No. 7

Each number on the stove corresponds to a degree according to the international razor aggressiveness table, so that it is easier for the owner to navigate. The Baikal razor is intended for the mass user and closes the most popular segment of aggressiveness in razors:

• 3-4 plate is an excellent solution for daily shaving,
• plate "6-7" - will help you out when shaving in 2-3 days or if you have stiff bristles and sensitive skin.

Thanks to the verified geometry, the razor is not sensitive to setting the angle with the right shave, which is suitable primarily for beginners, but also for confident users.

Specifications:

• Aggressiveness of the bottom plate (all included): 3, 4, 6, 7,
• Material of manufacture: aluminum D16T,
• Dimensions of the top plate (cover): 43 mm x 18.7 mm,
• Dimensions of the bottom plate: 6/7 43 mm x 24.6 mm x 8.8 mm, 3/4 43 mm x 24.6 mm x 8.2 mm,
• Handle dimensions: length 90 mm, diameter max 14 mm / min 9 mm, thread M5 x 0.8 mm,
• Shaver Weight: 44 g.,
• Topcoat: Tumbling (rough polishing),
• Brand: HomeLikeShaving (Russia, Omsk).

Equipment:

• Top plate (cover) - 1 pc.,
• Lower plate (aggressiveness 3/4 and 6/7) - 2 pcs.,
• The handle for the t-shaped machine "Sarmat" - 1 pc.,
• Warranty certificate (card) - 1 pc.,
• Packing - 1 pc.

Had a very early morning meeting this morning, and had a somewhat rushed 3 pass shave. No chance to post it until now, but things have calmed a bit. Today was the 9th day of the New focus and the 2nd with this SC. Someone mentioned @Linuxguile 's generosity and this razor is a good example. A few years ago, I mentioned how much I liked my LC and that I wanted to try a SC. A week or two later, what is waiting for me in my mailbox? This SC from Andrew. That's the way he rolls.
Everything worked as it should this morning. Not perfect results, but not very far from it.
Have a great day all.

Great shave reports and photos, my friends!

This morning was a double whammy. I woke up feeling a bit under the weather and Declan woke up with some pink in his eyes. Took him to the Dr and luckily he has viral pink eye rather than bacterial so it should clear up on it's own and soon. Keeping him home today, unfortunately that means not much rest for me. Hada shave last night though which I will post shortly. Have a great day my friends!

Jason, I believe that is your best picture to date. Love the shave.

Thanks Andrew, hope everyone gets better and soon. That is just a bad way to wake up.

Great shave Jason! I had a tube of proraso red at one point in time. It was a little too much sandalwood for me, performance was great though!

Lovely picture, Jason. Glad the day is starting to calm down.

Thank you, Andrew.
Hoping you and Declan get well soon.

Great looking combo as always, Jim. I'm almost certain by the closeup pic that those Yaqi knots are the same that APShave Co sells as SynBads. Love the 30mm version of those.

That's a good looking razor. Love the handle. I'm waiting on the HomeLike Smart.

Yeesh...you've gone to extremes to get that blade secured, Terry. MAYhem has come early. I've seen the blades that fit that Wilkinson available from time to time on the 'bay. Have you checked them out?

Thank you, Jason.
The knot sure does look the same. I think Yaqi calls this one the Mew Brown.

Black Ship Grooming Queen Anne's Revenge soap and AS

Shaved last night with the .84 Game Changer. While I do like the feel of the open combs a little better, the safety bar version of the GC is no slouch either. Three passes for an IBBS shave. Nice mild menthol effect in the AS and no sting from the alcohol. Have a great day my friends!

Hump day!

You are an 'old soul', Myles. And I mean that as a good thing. When I was 17, I was using a Reminton Microscreen and making fun of my grandpa's Old Spice...

HUMPDAY!!!
Great shave and photos, Andrew!
Is Declan looking for his other sock?

Yes, I saw on the Yaqi website the ability to buy knots in bulk (over 500 I believe) and I'm sure that is what APShaveCo did. They would use other suppliers for some of their other options, I'm assuming.

Thanks Jim, I thought you had a Start on the way in....very nice looking razor. How long have you had it on order and when do you think it will be arriving? I cannot wait to see its appearance. The Taiga adjustable is a nice looking razor as well.

Awesome Andrew shave and no daddy I was not dragging things out......it was brother.....I was just cleaning up his mess.

He looks guilty!
You speak so highly of the Gamechanger, Andrew. Mine is in transit.

Congrats on 10K, Joe! I'm a few thousand behind you, it appears, but my Shavette Fu'in probably has something to do with that...
