DesertIguana that’s the wide version and as far as I know there’s no up-charge, just ask for it.

Maybe ev you can answer question is the Scaloping on Head an Extra Cost, and is this THE WIDE or NARROW VERSION?
THX.

Haven't heard of this... Is it mentioned on his website?

I doubt I'll ever choose this configuration...was just curious.
Does the "wide" modification apply to the length of the head or the width?
I just find it hard to imagine since I assumed all razor heads are designed around blade dimensions which are standard.

Thanks for clarifying...sounds purely cosmetic.
From an aesthetic POV though, I would have preferred the grooves covering the entire top cap surface.
So it looks like a uniformly sliced loaf of bread.
