What are you waiting on to arrive...?

lucky you

 

Huh!

 

I don't like big handles, I like handles that balance the razor properly. Depends entirely on the weight of the head. A too light handle -- the Common Bar Handle on the New is my favorite example ain't no fun. 62g is fine for a bunch of heads I'm guessing -- same as 3" Karve handle pictured.

Coming soon in the mail from Canada the Christopher Bradley Razor with a 98mm (110g) long handle comes with four different base plate aggression from A to D

A - 0.60 mm
B - 0.73 mm
C - 0.85 mm
D - 0.98 mm

The other 3 base plate I'm not getting which are the

AA - 0.47 mm
E - 1.10 mm
F - 1.23 mm

 

You ordered four plates? I've yet to read reviews of the mildest AA and A plates.

I have two Rockwell Razors 6S and 6C both are v2.0

Rockwell base plate aggression FYI below



Christopher Bradley base plate aggression FYI below

• AA - 0.47 mm
• A - 0.60 mm
• B - 0.73 mm
• C - 0.85 mm
• D - 0.98 mm
• E - 1.10 mm
• F - 1.23 mm

 

Yes, have seen the comparison. I can say that the Karve D plate does not feel like what a Rockwell R8 would. And yet I'm baffled that anyone thinks they need anything more efficient. I don't see great benefit with the F plate.

Waiting on this German razor.. if anyone has any info on it I’d greatly appreciate it. It didn’t come cheap but the razor looks really cool and seems well made.

That’s what i thought. I’m sure it’s a generic razor but it looks solid and I like the top of the handle and how it sets into the head. It’s a pricey purchase. I got caught up in the bidding . Lol I’m positive I over paid by a lot.

So after numerous mail calls I’ve realized I have been a bit too busy to post. I’ve recently made 2 purchases within Europe that I wanted to share. 1 was my 28mm shavemac black and violet handle. Don’t have it yet but when I get it maybe I will take some shots of it. Secondly, I wanted to give some of my customers a superior experience with there edges. I noticed many are not happy with the synthetic feel regardless of how sharp it was. I listen and I learn. I have purchased this bad boy to get the edges everyone enjoys!


The honemeisters know what this is and they can feel free to correct me on it as it is advertised as a Ozuku Asagi lv 5+ I understand the hardness levels are subjective. I am going to re learn my honing skills using this beast. I pray it goes well lol

 

I just hit the buy button on a Feather AS-D1. Bin price of $15.99 with free shipping. Lets see if it pans out. Thank goodness for PayPal buyer protection.

 

Hot damn ! Let’s hope they honor it! Good catch!

A while back, I did the same on an expensive razor, forgot which one. It ended up being that the seller's account was hacked and he had to cancel all of the sales. Hope your's works out fine.

 

I am waiting on a Simpsons Tulip 3 Super Badger brush and a TSS XL Stainless Steel Brush-Only Stand. I have been using an Omega boar which has been a great brush, but I have been wanting to try a badger brush and I’m glad I came across the Superior Shave! They have the best layout of any website I’ve come across for shaving brushes. I loved that it had photos and dimension of the actual brush they will be sending you as it made me realize there were variations in the dimensions of brushes of the same make & model. He had a few of the Simpsons Tulip 3 for sale and I chose the one whose dimensions seemed the best to me which were a 24.5 mm knot, 51.88 mm loft, 40.7x50.9mm handle, and a total weight of 82.3 g.
