I recently got a Blackland Era and am really enjoying the shaves! I bought it because of the blade rigidity, as I think my face/whiskers do better with a rigid blade. The Era is pretty remarkable in that way, it is clamped along the entire edge of the blade, from end to end, and also very close to the edge itself. I have the Level 3 Safety Bar baseplate, which is a mild/medium aggression. It gives a safe and comfortable shave. I am not chasing BBS, but easily get that on my cheeks. It is safe enough that I can go right to XTG if I want to.
I attach a picture here. It is hard to capture just how much of a sliver of the blade is exposed and how closely it is clamped all along that edge. This is pretty unique and makes this razor different.
Who else is shaving with the Era and what do you think?
