It's been a while since I have posted anything here, I have been stalking though lol Haven't bought anything of note to add to my den... until now!
Just came in yesterday but I didn't have to shave until now. It's a Charcoal Goods dual comb machined razor head with mild aggressiveness, with a Magnum handle with the hammered look to it, done in antique brass(matches the head) with the dark antique patina on it. Also, that amazing wooden case that it comes in! Charcoal makes them himself and I must say, they are amazing
The handle is nice and heavy and very very easy to hang onto even with soapy hands. The head holds the blade tightly and this is also my first dual comb razor. I must say I have been missing out with this style of razor head, use the comb side for the easier areas and the closed comb for the touchy spots lol I used a Voskhod blade, my go to's and some Tiki North Shore soap and my skin is very happy with me. It went through my beard like butter, no irritation, no blood(well, one spot that always happens, I think it's a small mole or something I keep cutting off, but eh ), and the angle was easy to find. A light touch and let the weight of the handle do the work.
What I don't have pictured is my Charcoal Dual Helix handle I got back at the start of December, it was a birthday present to myself Also love that, it's a lot smaller though, but that's okay
Over all, I'm obviously very happy with this purchase and I can't recommend Charcoal Goods enough, great communicator as well with the discount for purchasing a razor and handle combo... I failed to enter the code that would give me the discount, but he emailed me with an hour and said he had refunded the money to visa
