Ross went quite big with exposure (from what I was told) if you find the specs.  I know a fantastic artisan (not razor maker) who has tested it and got his feedback on it, it is out of my league for aggressiveness.  

But, I’m a moderate efficiency razor person, I can’t enjoy very aggressive razors.  

Other people love aggressive razors, so don’t go only by my preferences as I tend towards razors no more aggressive than the diamondback.  I’m an RS10, Oliblade, Athena, etc kind of shaver.

I guess my original thread regarding this razor was removed ( I can't find it) In any event according to Bullgoose Shaving and it's owner Phil who is in partnership making this razor  it will seller for $385 (titanium version). Phil also mentioned the razor will be on the mild side.

I don’t know - he called the asylum a daily driver, and it certainly is not for me

I had tried it. I also need to admit that LOOT did a great job and helped Ross much more than me. 

I also had a side-by-side shave with the Paradigm DB Ti. I can easily say it is not aggressive; it's more suited for a daily shave. The razor is very smooth, and the blade clamping is excellent. There are also people who prefer milder razors and are checking the razors too.

I used the Eagle SS for a few days also.
So for me it's a mid aggressive to  possibly upper middle aggressive.
 
I shave everyday practically so keep that in mind. 
I used Gillette Nacet, Gillette Perma Sharp gold pack and Feather blades.
I did manage to get a couple of weepers with the feather but also had really great close shaves without one. 
If I come across a razor that I can't manage, no matter what I do, to get a weeper it's probably going to be too mild for me.

The way I shave, a couple of areas take multiple passes in different directions so it's a race to get the whiskers off or irritation.
 I'd say efficiency wise it's up there around the Athena and the Diamondback area for myself.

  I don't want to give false information but it seems within 2 or maybe 3 months. Maybe LOOT knows a  better timeline.
