Grew the beard for 2 days to test out the higher gaps tonight. Comparison to my other adjustable. Stand is the Maggard mr5 for reference.
The previous 24 hour growth shave was fantastic. Extremely comfortable with sufficient efficiency. I am not sure if this should be attributed to the slant geometry or the extreme bend imposed on the blade from the topcap, but the results were spectacular. The bend from the topcap seemed to be much more significant than the ambassador though it’s been a while and I can’t confirm.
Grip is great. Not ambassador levels, but by far the best out of the 3 razors above
Weight is excellent. I don’t know about the specs but very comfortable to operate.
All told, it left a positive enough impression after one shave to convince me it would be a welcome addition to my rotation.
If I had to knock anything there was a lot of machine marks. I splurged on the polished finish on my order for this reason
