Nice! They describe it as a mild razor, which is not my favorite, but I'm looking forward to hearing reviews. Looks like the top cap has cut aways so the blade tabs can be grabbed when the razor is disassembled, but covered by the baseplate while shaving. That's a nice touch!

This is a pre-order. Wait time for delivery is 6-8 weeks. No thanks.

The pictures are not very good so it’s hard to tell what the handle looks like. I don’t guess it matters since it’s longer than I prefer anyway. I also didn’t see where it’s made.

Not my cup of tea, but website does say it’s made in USA which is commendable at this price point.

Yeah, I agree. The blade gap is 0.61 and he has more photos on his Instagram. He is based in Pennsylvania (the razors will be made by him). I don't think he knows there are guys like us that geek out over the technical stats.

possible.

The head looks nice but the handle is too long for my liking.

The pre order price suddenly went up to $135. It's only $6, but to have the price increase without even fulfilling the first batch of orders is not a good sign. Too many $100 razors coming out in the near future from better known vendors, I'm not sure about this one.
