Or produce the original Javelin while we talk about efficiency/effectiveness and smoothness

The Paradigm Diamondback 2020 is top of the heap for me. It is one smooth operator. I also possess a Ti II. For me one of the pleasures of using my Paradigms is the beauty of the razor, particularly the handles.

I totally agree. The build quality and beauty of the DB 2020 razor is one of the main reasons I'll frequently just open my drawer and stare at it for a moment. I don't even need to shave to enjoy it.

Hey Ali, I let my 2020 DB go a while back, but I agree with what everyone else said. Minimal blade feel, very smooth, very efficient.

I pulled out the 2020 Diamondback today with 3 days growth. ETHOS peppermint as it is a warm day loaded an Astra SP and got a wonderfully smooth 3 pass shave. A little post shave serum from ETHOS and I am ready for today. We are certainly living in an era of great products for an enjoyable shave.

I'd love to have a Ti razor that gets close to the WR2 1.35mm head. With the trademark paradigm handle.

Finally! Smile
