My 3one6 arrived from England today and I immediately opened the box and assembled the razor. I choose the knurled stainless steel handle and was surprised that it was a tube with the ends glued. Overall weight including the head was very light. It was balanced, however the handle was thinner than I am comfortable with.

First shave and I immediately had to adjust the angle. There was much blade feel and slightly rough shave. I immediately tilted to the cap more and it shaved very well, much like the Mamba. The shave itself was very comfortable and I ended up with a two pass plus touch up BBS.

A week ago I had the Carbon Shaving CX in a pass around and these two razors were very similar where you get a different feeling in the shave depending on the angle you choose. That is also similar to the Rocca and R41. It was a very enjoyable shave, however I have already replaced the handle.

I also received my razor yesterday and had my first shave with it today. It is definitely not a mild razor, but not too aggressive either. My shave today wasn't the most smooth feeling, a bit roughness was there, but I didn't cut myself or anything. Felt somewhat like the REX on 4/4.5 or Karve with D plate maybe? Need more shaves to asses this properly.

I received the blue one this afternoon.  Beautiful.

At 2.2 ounces (59 g) it feels quite light.  About the weight of a Weber bulldog handle only.  I like it.


Here are 2 pics, first with natural light then flash.

Seriously? I dropped my first DE89 from about two feet into a sink full of water and when I pulled it out the post had snapped. That doesn't surprise me knowing what the thing was made of, but this BETTER not be a problem with a SS version or this thing is doomed from the start.

I hope it is an old twitter post from their standard offering and not the SS one.

Link?

Yep. The top piece came right out of the handle.

It was the brand new stainless version with stainless handle.
