That picture above is the old handle. The new handle has excellent Knurling. See pictures at top of thread [Image: 4bd71d060b28e3c39f8e8556acfcae68.jpg]

Ordered tonight!!.... Now the wait begins... ugh .. patience young grasshopper, lol. I had this razor on my radar as early as it was released with the aluminum base plate. Didn’t pull the trigger on it because I didn’t like the handle. Now I really like the handle and the wait seems to be worth it. I Hope Shavemd is right with the polish finish being on par with the Wolfie (btw thank you for those amazing pics, helped me alot Wink ) So for those who already have one, What is your choice of blade for the gorgeous H&S N075? Thnx

PS— Also I like to add a Special Thank You to rawfox1 .. If it wasn’t for your threads I probably would of passed on it and have gotten the Carbon Cx instead. Much Appreciated.

Great picture! Glad to hear you had a wonderful 3 pass BBS shave!! How efficient is the H&S N075 in comparison to Gamechanger.84 or ATT Windsor SSR1? Thank You in advanceSmile

I haven't done a side by side between those razors but I would say smoother than either of those 2. The GC and ATT  both required 3 pass shaves for me so I would say similar to .84 GC and a little longer duration of BBS than Windsor R plate

New handle looks to lengthen knurling zone, and adds .5" of handle length. If this sways your thoughts

Is Polo 14 that mug? Is it pewter? I halfway tried to google it but came up short. Me likey.

LOOT the Polo 14 is the Simpson Brush I think you would like it as it is huge! It would pair well with your Thor hammer.LOL. The mug is pewter, I found it at a little store in our Downtown, perfect for soaking a brush and the pewter holds the warmth.

My 1st Shave with the H&S N075...
The H&S N075 is an extraordinary shaver, hands down. This razor delivers with a close comfortable shave. I can say confidently that the H&S is a daily shaver. In my shave tonight I had a wonderful 3 pass BBs+ with no irritation and minimal blade feel. In my 1st pass I found the razors sweet spot fairly easy and its very intuitive to find the angle. 1st Pass —Wtx was as smooth as Butter, and it mowed down my 3 day Beard growth with ease. 2nd pass —Across the grain was just a pleasure. I hardly felt the blade as the H&S got the contours of my face with surgical precision, Color me impressed! During this pass I realized how comfortable the handle is, very ergonomic handle. Knurling is Superb. The handle is a bit of heavy, wished they had a hollow option like my Wr2. 3rd pass — Against the Grain. It was during this pass that the Neutral Blade exposure concept really shined, there was no blade feel at all! During this pass I had absolutely no fear of over-shaving or irritation. I knew the end result was going to Be Great. I had a wonderful and very enjoyable 1st Shave with the H&S. I am very happy with this purchase and I’m enjoying it so far. For me, this Premium Razor delivered on all accounts and I ended up with an ultra smooth BBs+ shave.
