Oh right. Duh! Very intriguing.Yes. That's what DC means: Dual Comb.

Curious to know what handle, base, and top plate you chose. Just browsed the website. Pretty impressive looking tools.
Yes, OC and SB... Oc for Pass 1 and SB for pass 2 every other day as usually 24 hrs later is still DFS or closer!! Not enough stubble to cut the next day...That's a beautiful looking razor. So is that one side open comb and one side closed?
Wolfman .95 WR2 SB Titanium - This is probably my favorite razor of all time as it should be considering the price tag. Exceptionally smooth while still being extremely efficient. Workmanship is unmatched. I have it in stainless as well in .95 1.00 and 1.05 as these could all take the top spots and complete the entire list. I'll count them as one razor though and move on to something else.
LA Shaving BBS-1 - this is the predecessor of the WR2 and it's another excellent razor. Though I like the WR2 a bit better.
Raw Shaving RS-10 - Surprisingly good considering a new maker and his first razor. A really nice combination of efficiency and smoothness. The milder blade is still a bit more aggressive then the WR2 that I normally use but it's an extremely comfortable razor to shave with.
After these would likely be Timeless followed by Charcoal Goods. Blackland and Paradigm should get some praise as well.
What did the RS-10 copy? I would be interested in that.Not to be a "hair shirt" but almost all of these copy well known and previously invented designs with the exception of the aforementioned PAA Ascension. High $$ artisans really bring new anything new to the table aside from modern materials and close tolerances. These are not radical & novel "breakthroughs" by any measure.
I would add that IMO the most radical razor of the past few years is the PAA Prismatic which mimics the little known Kirby Leresche razors of the 1930's and which utilized a safety bar before Gillette did. It's an interesting razor that has a variable "sweet spot" far larger than any I have ever used.
