Nice offerings. GLWTS.

If it doesn't actually torque the blade, but rather just cants it, I have no interest whatsoever. I spent years refining my 'slide' technique with all my razors. This technique allows me to use a slicing motion no matter what razor I am using. So-called slants that only put the blade at an angle...

Can anybody even see the tiniest bit of slanting in the picture on their website? To me it looks exactly like their normal SE1. What am I missing?

Why in the world would anybody want to have a shave soap that smelled like grapes? I mean, most "grape-scented" stuff actually smells like grape candy and not at all like real grapes, anyway. And it's not a good scent for a shave soap. It just isn't. Back in the day I got excited to try a...

This is awesome. I took about a three-shave break from Roulette and chose my own stuff...I have an old container of vintage Williams that is almost gone and I want to shave through it and get the container out of my way. Maybe I'll let the spin determine my razors and brush, though.
