    I just went back and checked my spreadsheet and I've used an OC razor for 40 out of my last 60 shaves. I'm considering using only OCs for 2017. I have 3 - Blackbird, New LC and SC. All are fine razors and really get the job done in excellent fashion. Anyone else use only OC razors?

    I have a preference for OC's but don't use them exclusivity. All of my razors need love.

    I used them exclusively until I got my Blackbird. I'm trying to trade it for the OC version though. No luck yet. OC razors seem to have a better glide for me.

    I wonder if he plays the Darth Vader theme song when shaving.

    Clint, that blade exposure is almost scary. Almost. I bet that and the larger blade gap make for a very efficient shaver.

    The blade gap is pretty large but the razor is a very smooth shaver. The key for me was using a more steep angle (handle closer to the face). It is really a very efficient razor being one of the few DEs I have tried that will equal the shave from my Cobra Classic.

    Thank you Andrew. It has been a great month. I will finish out the week with the Timeless OC before moving to one of my other razors.
