Visually Stunning & Effortlessly Efficient
Sleak, Sexy, See Thru and a Serious Shave Machine! On top of that, the Phantom Blue is a direct descendant of the Vintage FASAN "Blue Ghost" Open Comb Slant! Any true collector knows The FASAN Blue Ghost is a real must-have piece for the collection. So this ones for all my fellow "shnerds"* out there, geek out on this modern/classic shave tech! [*Shave Nerds]
Introducing The Phantom Blue! Yes, it is a slant razor and yes, it is an open comb. But it's also a most EPIC, Electric, Translucent Blue! It's really spectacular to behold & even more so to shave with! Phantom Blue, possibly the Ziggy Stardust of razors!
A true homage to the vintage, 1930s FASAN Double Slant Safety Razor! That's right, it's even more "twisted" than its bakelite brother! Meaning, there is even more of a dramatic slant on this baby, making for a smooth, effortless and lightweight shave!
Seriously folks, this is one of my favorite designs of all time!
Next, we opted to give ABS a go rather than bakelite this time around. While I absolutely love bakelite (it may be my spirit animal*) ABS might just be the better option! [*It's a toss up between Bakelite & David Lee Roth]
OC ABS Double Slant Series or Why Does ABS Rock?
First off, it's recyclable (7) and then, the color options are endless! While I loved offering our past bakelite razors the color choices were not really there. Heck, in order to do our Oxblood razors I had to source the bakelite supply myself, then ship it to the manufacturer! I mean, I never would have been able to do a Translucent Electric Blue in Bakelite, the manufacturers barely understood what a safety razor was, never mind if I asked them to make it See Thru & Blue! But I Digress...
ABS is also super strong and impact resistant. This could make it a perfect travel or camping razor. ABS is also heat tolerant and possesses a high tensile strength. It's shock absorbent, and lastly, scratch resistant. To sum it up, though light, it's pretty damn durable and will last generations, especially with the brass hardware we had to include. We made sure the brass post was the standard 1032 thread so that it can be mixed and matched with your other favorite handles! Though I recommend you hang with the whole package before you switch it up! Unlike it's metal cousin, The Phantom Blue requires slight pressure, but very, very slight. As for the presumed learning curve, you should have it mastered by the end of a 3 pass shave! A slant need not be about weight, but finesse and angle Grasshopper...
To sum all this up, The Phantom Blue is a killer retro style, high grade quality, piece of shave tech past, present & future. Trust me, you do yourself a serious disservice if you dismiss this as sheer novelty alone. Those of you who already own El Fantasma know exactly what I mean. A Smooth, Clean & Efficient Double Slant Shave Every time! SHAVE ON!!!
