The scalloped cap is only cosmetic as far as I can tell. I have both caps and don't really feel a difference.

If you don't get it you won't be invited to any of the cool kids' parties.

They are both excellent razors but Timeless wins on availability and variety. Also, Timeless offers Ti. Me loves me Ti :thumbup:. You can't go wrong with either though.

.68 is smooth and easy. .95 is medium aggressive and provides a closer shave while still being smooth for the efficiency you are getting. The Slim is by far my favorite. It shaves the closest of the three and provides some nice blade feel without being too tricky. It's still very smooth if...

Threading is standard. You shouldn't have a problem with most razors.

I can't imagine the Vector being lighter than the current SS. The Ti version must be lighter than the blade.

N series.

After reading the replies here I fired up my Rex. I shaved mostly on 4, did some touch ups on 5, but smoothed out my chin line on 2. So I guess "none of the above" applied to this shave but it worked quite well. The Rex was smoother than I remembered.

Just had a BBS with the Rex mostly on 4 with 5 for touching up. Contrary to the haters it was quite smooth. Not sure I'll get the Pearl but I'm keeping my eye on this thread. :001_302:

The photos look like stainless. Is this plated?

Tabac.

What do you think of the OC? Have you compared it with the SB?

Not looking good for the GRUME. :sad:

I haven't noticed any drag but, as I said, I favor a very light touch. I'll try to get a few razors together for a photo so you can see the difference in profile.

Razor - Paradigm AC Ti Brush - Simpson Chubby 2 Manchurian Soap - Stirling Satsuma AS - Stirling Satsuma Balm - Nivea Sensitive This was like shaving on a ski slope in Florida.

I have only 2 of what I'd call adjustables - a Progress and an Ambassador. The Progress is my travel razor. I have Karves and ATTs but never thought of them as adjustables, but I guess they are in one sense. I wonder how the traditional adjustables were marketed? I remember seeing ads but...

It takes a good 10+ shaves to get a Chubby 3 to hit its stride. You have to load it like you are trying to use up a soap you hate. Once you do, it's like shaving in heaven.

Razor - Timeless Ti Slim Brush - Thater Finest Silvertip 28mm Cream - Bigelow AS and balm - Proraso green Scuttle by Georgetown Pottery The razor, purchased in December, is my latest acquisition. Too bad I missed the January GRUME.

After using this razor for a month or so I am more impressed than ever. It really has become my favorite. The caveat is that next month, like most of us, I may have a different favorite. So . . . . YMMV aside, this is every bit as efficient as the BB only easier to live with. Not that I'm...

I haven't voted because that's why I'm asking. Is there a correct way to use an adjustable?
