Looks great. Sides of the head look unpolished but that's about it . Shave tomorrow.[Image: 7aced9b60654d4e6ac0c2bd0fcb1ee64.jpg][Image: 1ffad2f9ac4b67ed7c4fa2539bc614b4.jpg][Image: 17a6f0d4b31b350dd42e781be4fbbca3.jpg][Image: a9850e67cdc5963371a762fbb14a909f.jpg][Image: 5027ea817b8d654524358e538466fdb6.jpg]

Very pleased with the shave. Not much blade feel or feedback, as expected, handle too long for my taste but very smooth and efficient. [Image: cd503539c8603a69538c55cdc66b370c.jpg]

Anyone have an RS-10 that they can compare to this?

One poster described them as comparable.

I expect this comparison as usual is a YMMV situation, the RS-10 has very different geometry, i tend to favor the H&S type geometry for my ATG passes (which is why I bought it) but not everyone will benefit from it.

Interest handle. Thanks, all, for the comparative comments versus the Karve. The handle looks like a slightly different color. Or is that just the reflection?

Great razor. Thank you for posting.

Looks like it clamps the blade very tightly, like a Timeless razor. Should minimize chattering, making for a smooth and comfortable shave.

Sooooooo, I have to give credit to rawfox1 for convincing me to pull the trigger on this razor. I did have several conversations with the owner and maker of this razor, Aji Sunjaya, and I was really impressed with his overall knowledge, confidence, availability and niceness! If you get a chance, send him an email and I guarantee that he will answer all of your questions in the nicest way possible. Anyway, on to the razor. I just finished an evening shave with it and it is now tied neck and neck with my Rocnel Elite A and my Wolfman WR2 1.25 SB side as the smoothest and most efficient razors in my collection. I used a once used Feather blade and found the correct angle immediately! My razor came fully polished on every inch of the baseplate and top plate. I immediately switched out the handle to a longer Stork titanium only because I have never really liked shorter handles. That is just my preference. The handle that comes with the razor is beautiful, just too short for me. The head has some weight but not too much that it is overly heavy. I thought that I might want the aluminum base plate as well but after using this one, I don’t feel a need for it. The efficiency is on that level of facegasm!! . Whenever I have a shave like this, I am continually feeling the smoothness from my shave and just how close it is. This one is here to stay for a long time in rotation and is right up there with the top razors I have ever tried. A lot of people told me this was as smooth as the Raw Shaving RS-10. I love that razor but I like this one more because there is still a bit of blade feel and some nice feedback for me. I am impressed on an entirely different level with this razor!! It has taken a slot in my razor shelf right next to the Rocnel in my regular SB Razors. Outstanding!! Hope he makes an OC down the road!![Image: 3db2a3477a7a7043860880d7b7a73d8e.jpg][Image: 7e182f5464bcdd5b19559c744b0541a4.jpg][Image: 546feb6d3f85bf1cee0b15e6b41a9b2e.jpg][Image: 25af1f3820432212da61716669fa201c.jpg][Image: 03276a792e0056fbdfe09e4c0957bed8.jpg][Image: d5c0b066a67c2a28f2b663a6abc18f4b.jpg]

Just to give a quick update.  I used my Wolfman WR1 DC .74 (standard gap) yesterday to get a comparison of the No75.  I used the same Feather blade so this was its third use.  To me, it's not even close.  The No75 is much more efficient.  I am going to use my Rocnel Elite 2019 LE A tomorrow and then my Wolfman WR2 1.25 for the next shave and then come back to my stainless No75 to really see how well it does.  I can say from the fond memories of that shave the other day and the closeness of the shave that I feel these 3 razors are all neck and neck in smoothness and efficiency.
