Looks like HLS aren’t far behind with their slant version of the Taiga adjustable…
Good to have options, it will be interesting to see how they compare.
I watched the shave video on YouTube of the HLS slant. It is a 20 minute video of a guy shaving slowly and getting cuts all over his face. Variety is good. Konsul is gooder!
I don't know if I watched the same video as you and wish it was in English instead of Russian but the one I watched wasn't exactly a bloodbath at all. Did he have a few weepers, yes, and what I thought was the 1st one was actually some sort of blemish on his cheek that was obviously opened up on a prior shave that he re-opened when he started the shave. I'd also point out that he was using a proto-type and it looked like it was opened full bore which usually is never good at any time, much less with a slant!! It seemed when he dialed it back down he was getting much better results though.
I'm not in on either one of these slants but if I had to choose one it would be the HLS version you posted a pic of as the aesthetics are more to my personal liking as well as it actually looks like a slant where the Konsul looks exactly like the Rex and doesn't even look like a slant at all...
