Man these razors are such lookers, great choice! I was considering ordering a SS or Ti medium plate, so let me know if you decide to sell the SS plate you upgraded from!Welcome home La Faulx + Medium Ti

I didn't have any problem. Maybe my nose is not so big to cause issuesHow do folks handle the under the nose issue I've read about?
My sentiments exactly, their tied for me. I have Ti Wr4 .86 and Faulx Ti ++.Between this and the wr4. I'm torn.
Based on using both, my opinion is that the La Faulx is better than the WR4. But don’t just rely on me, and they’re both certainly excellent razors. I think part of it is that the WR4 is much lighter than I prefer, but also with the 0.50mm gap the WR4 has more blade exposure than the La Faulx Classique, so not as gentle, and I still find the La Faulx more efficient.Between this and the wr4. I'm torn.

Not sure if 0.50 WR4 has positive blade exposure..but also with the 0.50mm gap the WR4 has more blade exposure than the La Faulx Classique..
From the charts, it would appear that WR4 0.7 gap would have a similar effect as the LF ++Not sure if 0.50 WR4 has positive blade exposure

I can tell from my experience I have WR4 0.65 (it should be +0.06) and La Faulx +Medium (+0.05) and they shave different but blade feel is very close.
I think it is more geometry and not numbers what makes La Faulx like milder, but for me WR4 shave more close.
I prefer La Faulx with not guarded blades (Kai Pink) and WR4 with Kai Protouch MG when use daily.
both? ;-)With my name coming up in a couple weeks.... do I order the WR4 0.50... or step it up a notch and get the 0.55 to get the efficiency to more or less match the La Faulx Classic?
Does anyone know the weight of the brass, handle included? The posted table appears to be a bit wonky.
I already have and love the La Faulx Classic.. and my name will be at the top of the Wolfman list in a couple weeks. I was pretty sure I was going to get the WR4 0.50 but if it isn't quite as efficient as the La Faulx Classic, I might need to rethink that.both? ;-)
