I have a Ti Crown and thought it might not be a good fit and snagged this Tibam when I saw it available with the Salient in mind.

Very smart, that will go well with the polished Salient!

Salient continues to impress. Played around with the angle after reading Andrew’s comments and it offers consistent efficiency and comfort over a very wide band from cap to guard. Very good shaver!

Sascoman Ken, nice handle! With the compact head, titanium will be a good match. Sorry I muffed your name ....

Also, glad that the shave angle thing is working. It sounds a little batty until you experience it. I have found that the more I shave with that razor, the better it performs.

Enjoy the shaves!

I have this style Tibam handle (probably a longer version), and it is my favorite. I prefer a long handle, and I use it on several different heads (Gillette Tech, Henson, Gillette New Short Comb, etc), and it works great. Very well balanced. Should work great with the Salient.

Does anybody here know if the Carbon Cx handle will fit the Paradigm Salient head?
If so, please let me know. Thank you.

The Salient threads are M5 x 0.8

I'm still waiting for the razor as it loops the state within USPS.

The holiday Monday has all mail a little backed up.
