I agree with you, why did so many people mix and match these pieces? Leave them alone and “Just Shave!”
I agree about the polishing thing, I don’t know why everyone is so obsessed with polishing everything. I love my matte and satin finish razors. I like to keep everything original even though they are not really rare or anything especial.
Lately though more razors are being offered in a satin, matte and even a stonewash finish and are well received and I don’t buy the slickness thing either. Use less pressure and hydrate your soap better. ?
I don't get the obsession some have to have a high gloss finish either, I like all my hardware to be matte or just a machined finish... I have tested Timeless razors in the past in polished and matte and both shaved exactly the same. The only difference I did encounter was the polished razor showed every scratch on the razor from just handling the razor or from a towel wiping the razor down, drove my OCD flippin' crazy!!
