Paradigm 2020 Diamondback

Hey all. We have a mirror finished re-release of this razor. Posting some pics in a bit.

Some pics. I'm available to answer any and all questions

Well, the pics didn't take. A bit rusty out here. Errrrrr ... more than a bit?  I pasted the URL from Imgur, but no dice on the pics. Somebody clue me in?

I open the Full Editor and look for the black square with the white "I" for image. I always post pics hosted on my PC tho. You can likely post Imgur links in the full editor too.

If you click Preview you'll be able to test the images before posting.

I didn't purchase the first one that you released but did read the problems that there where with it, which is why I've held back on purchasing. What are the changes, besides the mirror polish, that have been done with this release? Thanks.

Thanks, that's better! I'm hoping that some of you who have purchased already from the new release will get the ball rolling. Otherwise, I'll be checking in and am happy to answer any and all questions

There were issues, entirely related to finishing, but that can cascade through to dimensional issues with aggressive repair. Those issues have been eliminated, I'm happy to say. You have a 30 day trial. Any problem, you get a refund, no questions asked. Razor is in other ways identical, except for a bit of meat on top cap.

Does this razor have positive blade exposure?
Beautiful razor by the way!

Thank you! Regarding blade exposure, let's be sure we are on the same page. Attaching diagram. The short answer to your question is yes, but not aggressively so. What I strive for in every design is a balance between efficiency and smoothness, while seeking to maximize both. The Diamondback is a significant evolution in the realization of that goal.

Shave geometry always comes down to the interaction between dimensions. Blade gap is the usual shorthand for expressing how aggressive a razor is, and the gap here is .8. The razor is medium aggressive and quite efficient.
