Growth: 2 day beard Prep: Warm shower: Stirling Sheep bar soap Pre: Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap Brush: Semogue 1470 Lather: PAA Supreme Sandalwood Science (CK-6 formula) Load/Lather Bowl: soap tub Razor Head: Yaqi Romulus, no shims Handles: Razorine 21972, Maggard Razors MR7, PAA Flare Tip, Feather AS-D2 Blade: Schick P-30 (D6.5) Post: Alum, Stirling witch hazel, PAA Mysterium Serum I picked up a Yaqi Romulus second hand so I could use my Schick P-30 blades (that my Ti Vector cannot use). I found the Romulus handle was too slick from my taste so I decided to work through other handles I owned to find one I liked better than the stock handle. The Razorine handle (64.8g, 90mm) was a joy to use. I looks nice and the connection point does not extend past the base of the Romulus head. I used a black Yates washer to protect the bottom plate. Though not the grippiest handle out there, I balance the razor on my pinky finger for shaving my face and grip the middle of the handle when shaving S-N on my neck. I like this handle. It would inspire me to shave more. At 90mm, it is only 1mm shorter than the Romulus handle (50.9g, 91mm) for which I liked the length/head angle. The Maggard Razors MR7 (64g, 98mm) had plenty of grip, but the longer length (98mm) caused a harsh head angle at points. The PAA Flare Tip handle (79g, 88.9mm) is the same length as the Feather AS-D2 handle (88.9mm) which I like. It worked well but I am not fond of the knurling. The connection point does not extend past the base of the Romulus head. I can use a black Yates nylon washer with that handle to protect the base plate from scratches. I finished with the Feather AS-D2 (60.0g, 88.9mm) which had been the front runner so far. I like the knurling on this handle and have a Maggard Razors stand that fits it well. I use a Maggard Razor white nylon washer just to cover the connection point of the handle since it sticks out a little (and to give protection against scratches). This handle gives me the best control, though I think I prefer the overall feel of the Razorine handle. I think I will go with the Razorine handle for now and if it turns out to be too slick, I will pull out the AS-D2 handle. Other handles that I could use and that I don't think stick out past the Romulus head include the Stando King handle (too heavy) and the Gillette post-war Tech ball end handle (too short/small, brass).
