Charcoal Goods Appreciation Thread

Brian Twilley is an extremely talented artist, razor designer and machinist. His designs are a unique combination of function and art. I feel extremely fortunate and grateful to have some of his work. There are no other razors that bring the same smile to my face when I pick them up in the morning. With his recently announced retirement from making razors, I thought it might be a good time to start a Charcoal Goods appreciation thread. We're gonna miss you Brian!

I'll get things started with a few of my favorites.

Gen 3 Level 2 …

One of the best daily drivers ever in my opinion

Very nice - and great antiquing job! The gen3s are underrated IMO. I agree that the level 2 is a great daily driver and the level 3 is perfect when I've skipped a few days. While I find the gen1/2 level 3 to be a bit much for my tastes, the gen3 level 3 is smooth as butter while still being quite efficient.

Great collection! Especially your first run SS. That’s a wonderful shaver and Brian put a great finish on it!

Thank you! I feel very fortunate to have one.

My favorite razor artisan. Truly amazing craftsmanship. Sad that Brian retired, wish him well! Opening up the vault :

My collection of 1.  Best looking razor I own, but a little too aggressive for me.  Lvl 3 with a Torpedo handle. I just love to own it!
