But back to one I may have missed, proposed handle length, is it listed anywhere?

Handle details will be announced soon, but it’s a pretty average length. Though keep in mind that handle length is a bit deceptive because the knob might be considered part of the “handle” length. So I’m factoring that in when I say that the handle is average length. Also, the length changes a small amount as the shave level increases.

I think I might be more excited to share the handle than I was to share the adjustment stuff. We’re really proud of how cool and functional it’s turned out.

I'll take that to suggest that your going with a knurled handle, eh Shane? :-) Great, I love it!

If Blackland ever launches a knurled handle then there’s been a mutiny.

Amazing Shane! No doubt I'll be picking one up. Is the highest setting more efficient than than the BB and the dart? I would imagine so.

Presidential convoy had two ospreys when they landed near me last week. Guess i had my sign.

Any info on the stand you could share?  The design and engineering is immaculate.

Living on the edge
This is very, very impressive...love how it's all come together.
True razor innovation that we haven't seen in years, much less in an adjustable.
Love the handle mechanics and ergonomics...the brass plug pretty much eliminates
the need for Titanium in the future, I would imagine. And the Taipei 101 reference
is just a wonderful piece of inspiration and functional genius. You are quite the engineer!
To say that I am a confirmed buyer would be understating it.

The only thing that I didn't quite sync with perfectly was the big ass BLACKLAND plastered
across the front...but I do understand that branding is necessary. Was wondering if the scallops
at the sides of the head could be replaced with recessed lettering for grip...perhaps 'OSPREY'
on both sides instead of anonymous scalloping. That's probably a stupid idea but had to blurt
it out.

Anyway, great job!

How do you properly clean it with all those nooks and recessed areas? Does a toothbrush sufficiently reach everywhere? (For example, I'm surprised the underside of the head isn't just a flat area, but I guess that's a weight issue.)

The brass insert is clever. Interested to see changes to the bottom of the handle. Something about the bottom flare messes with the overall aesthetic. Also seems a bit plain.

We visited our son-in-law and daughter when was stationed at MC Air Station Yuma, and saw a lot of Ospreys flying. Wes said he hated riding in them when the wing was rotating, but I would have loved to try it! It’s an amazing aircraft design!

The new razor is also an amazing design and achievement! Wow!
