A post on FB with a PAA Starling SE prototype...... Interesting.

It was on their FB page....... looks interesting. What say you Gents?

I'll wait for reviews, but it looks strange to me for whatever reason. I'll probably buy a blackland or ATT eventually, but you never know. I HIGHLY doubt it will be at the $25 price point like suggested before. If it is I may buy one just because.

I'd like to see more pics/angles of it.

It's the only one I saw on their page. Another concern is no blade stops that I can see. Maybe a thread through design?

Here is a shot of the inside of the head. Looks good to me....

Nice. Aluminum or Stainless?

I was able to hold a prototype at the Maggard meet up. It is small and made of aluminum so it is very very light. Judging by the design, I can't see how it would shave much different than one of the later vintage GEMs. I don't care for the engraving on the top cap either. I would be willing to give it a shot though, especially if it's only $25.

Yep, I agree. I have modified a few Gem razors to fit a current SS handle. I'm hoping the newer ones feel like those because they are more balanced. Guess we'll find out soon enough. I still highly doubt they will be $25 as he said though.

Ahh, you quoted me before I edited my post, lol.

Agreed. But if it's under $50 I might take a flyer on it..... light weight and all, just throw on an s/s handle for more feel and heft.
