Mine too, just the execrable Barbasol disposables.
I do prefer the SS to the Tech. Especially if you can have all the varieties; 40's, flare, red tip, blue tip etc. For modern, maybe EJ89? not sure.
Well that doesn't sound good. I assume I can swap out the handle from my ASD2 if needed? Thanks for the tip.

I'm pretty sure I just bought a Muhle R41 from "The Modern Man" website for $30.20 shipped to the US. This is almost half the price that I have...
