About the Blade Gap:

  • 0.95mm blade gap MEDIUM AGGRESSIVE: Gets very close very quickly without irritation
  • 0.68mm blade gap MILD: Nice and mild but takes more passes to get BBS

FINISH

  • MATTE FINISH: Dull glass beaded finish. The matte finish creates a more durable long-lasting finish
  • POLISHED: Ultra shiny finish. The polished finish is more prone to scratches, wear and tear

**NOTE** The underside of the caps are NOT polished. Tool marks may be visible here. This surface is left unpolished to keep a tight tolerance on the pinch of the blade. The tops of the base plates (where the blade goes) does not get as much attention as the rest of the base plate due to the fact that it is going to get scratched by the blade upon use.

Richard ★★★★★

The cap threading is machined so precisely that the blade sits perfectly flush every time I assemble it. I've used it daily for three weeks and the stainless steel still looks like it just came out of the box.

Eva ★★★★★

The weight is perfectly balanced when I screw on the cap I chose, and the stainless steel feels rock solid in the hand. Took a few shaves to find the right angle, but now it's the smoothest razor I've owned.

Emma ★★★★★

The threads on the cap and handle mate so cleanly that it feels like one solid piece, and the stainless steel has that heavy, reassuring heft I was hoping for. I ended up with an all-American build that’s going to outlive me, honestly. Took a bit of fiddling to pick the parts, but the result is wort
