Teledus might be fine with 100 pieces at 1000 dollars but that is a different game, it’s SS.
Btw, it is not Teledus, I guess. Maybe it is Tedalus, Velocity-One...

Correct but I spelled it just how I wanted to and spell check substituted teledu. Funny if you look up the definition of teledu :-)

High praise indeed. But, having used my Salient now for a month plus, including the last four days in a row, I have to say it is a fantastic razor. I've liked using it with a longer handle and the H&S N075 handle has worked perfectly for me. Very oddly, the Salient handle works great with the H&S N075 head. Not sure it's better than the original but it's awfully happy there. At the moment, the two razors are sitting mismatched in my cabinet -- the two heads with the swapped handles.

I don't use instagram but occasionally take a look when sent a specific link.
I must say that Yates feed is a wet dream for machinists....clueless punters like me just look
on stupidly wondering what the hell is going on.
Still, I did not see anything Paradigm being named or made

Yates’ latest YouTube episode (YPM Vlog Episode 13) also mentions the Ti Paradigm. He shows the computer software used and then a test/ prototype baseplate being made towards the end of that episode.
Not sure if YouTube links are allowed here or not… but anyone interested can easily find it by searching for “Yates Precision Manufacturing” on YouTube.
