You would be amazed at what a built in hone does for a carbon blade. (If you are curious, it does absolutely nothing for or to a stainless blade, imo).
I think it is time to send out a few pms first then do a BST listing after reading this thread since I have a few of these razors and hardly use them anyways.
To quote @battle.munky "the R41 is a whisker squeegee" The 2011 R41 delivers a 4-pass shave with 2-passes.
At this stage of my game, as it pertains to wet shaving, my list is way too long to put here. Suffice it to say, I see something new and wonderful you guys talk about every day or so. Granted that's a bit of an exaggeration, but the sentiment is valid. But this would make me happy! A Gillette Toggle. It wouldn't have to be mint, I'm not that way. At least not yet. But to just have one to have on the "shelf" would be a fine moment for me. That concept fascinates me. I understand, folk's hesitations, but it is what it is. There would easily be others, but my eye goes to that Toggle. EDIT: Oh yeah! And a Stahly! Again a fascination with the concept/idea of it.
After 5 years of DE shaving and a fair number of different razors, turns out the Charcoal Goods SS level 2 has become my destination razor for head and face. It just works for me under any and all circumstances. I wouldn't mind a backup for my first gen Charcoal Goods SS level 2 head to go with my pair of second gens. The only razor I want that I haven't tried, yet, is a matte stainless Wolfman WR2 1.05 or 1.15
