Not sure if I watch a video of you shaving with it, if there is one, ill look later.

Sorry to ask this question here: you mention the blackbird ti is worth it over the SS, besides the weight, i recall you mention how to feels or cuts is different. is it worth double the price of a SS? u can send me a pm on that answer, i can't reply but i can read it on my email .

Thanks in Advance!
I have no problem answering here as I've probably posted it elsewhere on the site anyway. To me if I was going to own one it would have to be the titanium. It was the only one I found comfortable so only you can decide if it's worth the asking price for yourself. The stainless steel was more aggressive than I cared for. I did not think the metal could make a difference that everyone was saying but after borrowing one I realized that there was truth to the hype I was reading.

Svoll I forgot to say, I have zero issues getting anywhere to shave with this even with the bulkiness. It's pretty close to my desert island razor for results even if it isn't a glamorous choice. Happy2

Thanks Dave! I ordered both to test

Found your Rockwell 6S video, #192, guess you don't have to worry about the lip and nose area as you have a nice mustache!

Hi Dave, I spotted a wee sample of bay rum shaving soap in your post on the September acquisitions thread.  Can you say where it's from and what you think of it?  Thanks  Happy2

It came with no explanation so I'll have to inquire and get back to you but will let you know Mark. Happy to send it to you to use as you're more connoisseur than I am? The brush maker was from Montenegro but I have no idea about the soap yet.

Turns out it is by a Company in Serbia called Dendi and available on Etsy and eBay I think.
