After a few extra days than were expected the 1.45SB and solid WRH7 has landed. I requested mirror polish as everything I have is in mirror...even before it was called mirror. I wanted to be able to mix and match anything I had and have everything look like it belonged together. This finish on both the head and handle is literally flawless. Just in time for tomorrow’s shave.

I liked them well enough, but as soon as a .74 came up on ebay I jumped on it like a kangaroo. It is a DC and I still have it. The pair of .61s eventually were sold to good homes.
"So the standard design in inches is a .024" blade gap (.61mm) and a few customers have gotten a .005" increase to .029" (.74mm) and on this razor according to my personal blueprints for each .005" change in blade gap it will add or subtract .003" in blade exposure (that imaginary line tangent to the cap and guard). So you're getting .003 more blade exposure if you go with the same increase others have gotten."
Just need to figure out the exposure of the standard gap.
Say that to say .... I don't know about the difference in exposure, but that .003 sure gives me a better shave than the 0.61s did. It was similar to switching from the Timeless .68 to the .95 for me.
So far, for my particular face/neck bigger has always been better, YMMV.

You weren't "lynched"..you were called out for making a dishonest statement. One you never walked back. Don't troll....or do it in another thread. Most of us would be more than a little ill if your incessant need to be a victim gets the thread locked. Victimhood is a disease.
