thanks for the heads up!

Looked up the info on Super Knurled its 2.9 oz vs 2,6 oz of HD and BarberPole

2,3 oz is the UFO handle.

I had a few RR in the past, Mamba and GC. I just wanted a handle i don't already own, could easily swap them if it bothers me!

Another great SOTD!

Once again I've proved to myself I made the right choice in DE razors. The RR Lupo .95 is simply a great shave and this was on my 5th and last use of an Astra SP blade. Sadly, my RR Game Changer 84-P is not getting much love these days. But, it still resides in my 'den' for those days I want quick, no drama shave.

I saw RR/Italian Barber have released a GC 1.05. A bit too aggressive for my tastes, but I'm sure they are having a hard time keeping them on the shelves.

My preference is Lupo 95, I like to feel the blade a little more Big Grin

Razorock has refined the finish of their
stainless steel razors at some point.

Almost zero machining marks and far
smoother surfaces ,with fewer blemishes.

^^^ Older model ( Game Changer .84 OC ) .
Check the machining marks ( more evident at the left comb ) and surface blemishes.

Along with the new thinner caps ...

...it seems that Razorock is refining aesthetically-wise
 their designs .At least that what happened  with the 
Game Changer series .

I picked up the GC 1.05-P as I found the .84 a bit mild for my taste. The 1.05-P doesn't feel overly aggressive, at least to me, but I do favor more aggressive razors. It is impossible to argue with the Lupo, however. I have the Lupo .95 OC and it will still likely see more rotation than the 1.05-P. Eventually, a .95 SB will be added.
