Good morning, DFS! I've been going back and forth on this for a few weeks and haven't made a final decision so I need your help with the following question:
Should a titanium razor have a titanium stand or a stainless one?
Generally, we want our razors and stands to match and be made of the same material. However, the point of a stand is to hold the razor in place and prevent it from getting knocked over and the weight of stainless makes it much better for this task than Ti. So we either get a matching stand and razor or we get a more effective stand that does its job better and doesn't quite match.
Since I'm here to make an actual decision I ask that you respond only if you have experience with Ti (or maaaybe aluminum if your thoughts are very relevant). Your opinion also matters a lot more if you're in the market for a Ti Blackbird so let that be known if that's the case. Please keep responses related to the question above and note that it is binary. I'm leaning one way and I'll be curious to see if that is validated or not.
Thank you!
