    A milestone sotd for me this big ole Fon wedge provided a effortless bbs shave, it also happens to be the first blade I've honed myself from bevel set to finish. Super proud of this one! Rubab firefly for applying a luscious lather from moon soaps havana and of course matching aftershave!! Compress_20230918_222959_9524.jpg

    I have a question that has been puzzling me for some time.

    I have a couple razors that have no safety bar of any kind.
    They aren't open comb but they aren't straight razors either.

    What would they be classified as.

    I know what they are.
    The brass one is a De-vett custom made and b uses a DE Blade.
    The other one is a Razorock Blackhawk I took off the safety bar and thinned out the top cap so I could get a better angle of attack.
    I use Feather blades in the DE, and Feather super pro in the SE Blackhawk.


    I was wondering what classification they would fit in, definitely hybirds.
    They shave close like a shavette but handle like a safety razor.

    Got it - I’d consider them safety razors :happy088:

    You could start a thread about this in the safety razor forums. It's not a straight razor or shavette. This is a thread for straight razor shave of the day.
