RazoRock Stealth Slant & Baby Smooth

The two best razors out there, I wouldn't want to be without mine.

These came in the other day. Proraso Blue is one of my favorite creams and I'll be revisiting MWF after trying it a few years ago.

After a few shaves each, I'm coming to the same conclusion.  Amazing razors!

Just love them. I had three Baby Smooths but am down to two realizing how well built they are. I should have known owning the Stealth as the aluminum used seems very durable.
The Wolfman might be the best built DE I own but for the shave itself nothing beats the BS and Stealths for me. Those Delta Echo refurbished one's look great.

Hoping we get an update on the new Stealth (V5?) upcoming....that looks really interesting.

Yes, that one sounded interesting to me too.

This past long weekend I tried a few of my vintage razors again, I couldn't get back to my Baby Smooth fast enough.

Nothing beats the shave I get from it. And as you said, well built. Mine looks as good as the day I bought it (initial batch).

Got my order in after placing a reservation on May 15. The one on the left is the standard and the one on the right has the increased blade gap. I wanted a way to differentiate so I had James engrave the caution triangle into the more aggressive head. Well worth the wait.

picked up a gillette guard and 16 blade refills on ebay for less than $10, shipped from California. I've been wanting to try them for a while. I think my wife might like them for shaving her legs as well.

For a cartridge razor they're quite decent and prove that one needn't spend a fortune on five blade wonders which offer a shave that is no better than the Guard. It is great for travel, especially when flying and TSA considerations come into play.

can't hurt to give them a try. for such a low price, it's not some big loss if we don't like them.
