Just Here for the Shaves

The call alone made me a huge fan!!  Jonathan stated that he is making a video with the new titanium razor that he will post over the next several days.

Yes I was wondering about what looked like a copper thread on the photos. Did he mention why this was necessary?

No and I should have asked but now I am just waiting so that I can see it and use it. I am actually drooling over this one!!

Really looking forward to a review on the aggressive version from anyone that may get theirs shortly.

I got home today to discover that the Aggressive one got delayed in holiday traffic. Hopefully it shows up tomorrow Sad

I tried an aluminum aggressive plate even though I don’t like Al razors as way too light. The shaves were very efficient with some blade feel for sure. From what I recall the shave was more efficient than Timeless 95 and CG3 but it didn’t “rip up” the face or was not harsh like an iTech razor. I hope the smooth face feel of Titanium and it’s nice (slightly weighted) balance will yield a very comfortable shave. Looking forward to trying the complete Ti razor.

That’s some great news! The AL is so affordable, nothing to lose in giving their razors a shot that way.

This is quite promising. Thanks for the info.
