I kind of regret not getting the A plate while I was at it.

I always enjoyed the shave from the RR BBS so I figured I should try the whole range.

The bend in the blade got my attention, I seem to like that, I've noticed. Good call Mark.
I emailed them to see if they could add a second plate into my shipping, after thought.

I got the A plate ordered and Italian Barber will include in with my AS razor with TI handle. Good response and customer service from Italian Barber.
Looking forward to the razor.

BBS ordered with AS plate

Got my BBS set today. First shave with the AS baseplate, ETHOS Peppermint and 3rd use Polsilver Brown. Still an extremely smooth shave with what I believe to be the most aggressive plate. Very easy 3 pass shave on 2 days growth giving me a very satisfying BBS result. I will see what the duration is, as that was my issue with the original plate.

I only ordered AS plate.. If you find it very smooth, I am happy I didn't order A and OC.

Tried the OC baseplate today.for me, more blade feel yet took a little more work to get the same level of BBS as compared to the AS plate. The AS plate left a smooth face for about 12 hours, nearly double the original BBS for me. Will see how the OC fares but I am guessing AS plate stays OC plate on the BST shortly.

Got a great, interesting shave with the new-to-me BBS.
Started with the Standard base plate and a day two Rapira Platinum.
Interesting shaving angle. You’re either shaving, or just scraping off soap with the comb. Once the angle is discovered, it’s easy to keep it.
The blade is so bent that it seems rock solid, virtually no chatter.
Smooth shave with the standard plate, but didn’t seem efficient enough.
After the WTG pass, I switched to the A plate.
Much more efficient and still a smooth shave.
I really enjoyed this razor. It is a very different shave than other razors.

Now…I think I need to add the AS plate…like I need another…
