I ordered the one with black handle aluminum. With shipping $60.7
He said the weights of all three are same 74 grams (Plastic - Brass - Aluminum). He might forget to change it according to material of handle.

Edit...... Ordered Thanks for the heads up Gus GlazedBoker

I ordered wrong style accidentally (Chromed Brass) but he is correcting to Black Handle Anodized Aluminum for me.

I’m curious as to how these will shave. Worried it will be too aggressive and I’ll need to sell it!

The OG Gibbs Regable is considered to be one of the best shaving adjustables ever made. And many have put up the argument that it is The Best ever. It delivers an exceptional smooth shave throughout its range like very few razors can. If the Heritage Replica can get to within a whisker or two of the Gibbs, it's a winner in my estimation. And you don't need a tool to modify blades. Big selling point as well.

I’ve just had some issues with the Ambassador - too aggressive for me above setting 2 and I need a light touch. 

My daily driver is a Timeless Ti 95.  Very smooth for me. It’s lighter than a stainless razor so I have to be careful to avoid pressure when using a heavier razor

I'm curious to know how many are ordering the "original design" vs the black annodized aluminum.

I considered it but not real trusting of the plastic lasting and figured the anodized black aluminum was a good compromise.

I ended up ordering the anodized black alum for the same reason.  The main reason I considered the original design was I like the 3-piece design better than the 2-piece
