No problem. I know that some customers will buy it, analyze the performance scientifically, and find differences. They will probably be completely correct. However, the goal of this finish is, frankly, to look incredibly cool. If there’s a slight performance benefit then that’s great, but it would be disingenuous to advertise that you need this because it will shave better. This one is all about aesthetics.
Thank you for this post, Shane. In the last year or so, I've seen folks mention that a shiny finish provides a smoother shave. I've not commented on those comments, but I find that notion totally outside of my personal experience. The finish on my razors makes no difference whatsoever, to my face. But if others find the finish meaningful, more power to them!
