On-line NOW!

Placed an order for the gold colored one.

Here it is, I know I’m late to the party, but I just thought of it. I had checked a few times earlier throughout the day and hadn’t seen it live yet.

I look forward to hearing your experience! The specs from what I saw kind of fall somewhere in between their B and C straight bar plate as far as gap and exposure goes. I had the C plate and found it a little bit mild for my preference, but this is a different razor, so I’m sure the shave could be very different.

Sure will!

In fact, I’ll shave half my face with the Bison and the other with a CB SB plate C…

I've done that frequently with two different razors, it is a good way to compare them directly and for me sometimes in between shape so I might forget some specifics about how the shaves went. The Bison is a .71 mm gap with a 0.06 exposure. The B plate is a .73mm with zero exposure, the C plate is .85mm with a 0.09 exposure. So, it is basically like a B plate gap with the C plate exposure. All that aside, I'm curious how it's designed to shave though. I found myself very happy with their E plate which is 1.10 mm and a 0.17 gap.

Good morning.
The head looks a bit like the Henson from the side.
However, the shave plane is not that flat and the flatter area is shorter.
To me the Bison felt quite similar to the Overlander, moreso than a CB plate C.
I have a very light beard and am only doing 2-passes shaves, so I don't think you'd like the Bison.

I was using Tabac cream today by the way.
And a feather blade. (brand new)
