Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito.
3 shaves in with the Start. 1.18 then .90 then 1.18 all SB. All shaves were extremely smooth and not much noticeable difference between the 2 plates in feel but the 1.18 is certainly a big step up in efficiency both in less strokes and duration of BBS. I would put the .90 in the range of my Ti Timeless .95 SB both in feel and efficiency, the 1.18 is a definite step up, more in the range of my CG level 3 vers2, Wolfman WR2 1.45 Ti for efficiency and smoothness. The workmanship is excellent but the finish is a step down compared to the ones I mentioned. I think I would like a little deeper knurling on the handle but it still is not slippery it reminds me of the Paradigm 17-4 handle.

I lately recognized they have different handle options.
Probably need to separately get head and which handle prefer.
