Already shaved today so will have to wait until the morning.  But in the meantime, nice to photo it.

Congrats.  First Sailor you held?  What do you think of the feel in hand?
Yes, first time held a Sailor.  Presence, solidity is what comes to mind. But I like weight -- this reminds me of my RS-10 in the hand.  Only small surprise is the length of the handle -- seems short a touch, and this is the MC so it's longer than the regular Sailor.  But I suspect I'll get used to that quickly.  Cannot wait to try it since it feels like such a precisioned tool!
Excellent. I'm glad first impressions were positive. Hopefully, performance will be there for you...and handle length is a non-issue. Keep us posted.

What number did you get?

Number 36.  Must be my lucky number because the first shave was, frankly, awesome.  It was substantively a different experience than I'm used to  -- smoother, easier, and I felt as though I just couldn't possibly nick myself.  Maybe I chose the right setting (passes were 3 / 2.5 / 2.5) or maybe just the right blade (GSB) or maybe the stars were aligned. Was great. I hope it continues so well, but, if so, my normal rotation razors (H&S, Wolfman, Raw RS-10) might be looking for new homes.

That is fantastic news! I pick up other razors from time to time, but it is really hard not to grab a Sailor of some description. The MC has a lot of other razors jealous. It can do so much...so well. Keep us posted on how this relationship matures.

Small world, my 2020 is also #36.

I swear I thought I already saw someone else having that same number for the MC. Might be a difference in the years I suppose.

Love the pic, btw.

Thanks, re: the picture. Maybe 36 is the number to get!  Without doublechecking, I believe someone here posted a 35.

Okay so I guess we're getting duplicate numbers which is kind of strange. Here's my post from October[Image: Od3M5jz.png]

You guys should ask for a refund, I'm sure Murat will oblige, lol.  All joking aside, having the same numbers doesn't diminish how phenomenal the razor truly is.  I would just add it to the list of quirks Tongue
