Hello fellow RADists!
So I have convinced my wife to buy me a Timeless razor for Father’s Day, super excited! I need some help from the community as I have never had a titanium razor (currently my only razor is the Edwin Jagger DE89). If I purchase the titanium, I will have to purchase from the scratch and dent, but if I get the stainless steel, I can purchase new for similar cost? Please give me your opinions both pros and cons? Do most people purchase the stand too? Thank you great community!
Setup I want:
Cap: Smooth
Base Plate: Debating between scalloped and solid bar
Gap: 0.95 (I shave every 3-4 days)
Handle: Short Barber Pole (I realize the titanium only has one option).
Finish: Polished
Titanium Scratch and Dent: $220
New Stainless Steel: $215
