The mailman is supposed to be here with it tomorrow.
Looks like an inaugural shave is due for Saturday morning.
Looks like an inaugural shave is due for Saturday morning.
Just completed my first shave.
Loaded up with a fresh Nacet.
Lathered up with Stirling Ozark Mountain.
Got a BBS with three passes and cleanup.
Almost no sting from the Clubman, which was nice.
The shave itself felt a little tuggy,especially on the first pass.
I suspect I didn't have the angle down the best, and the Nacet might not be the blade it likes.
Are these Razors picky about blades?
Is the optimal angle fairly narrow?

I usually shave with a fairly shallow angle with my other razors but with my Timeless Titanium 0.68, I find myself using a steeper angle. The angle was pretty easy to find on my first shave with the razor. As for blades, I usually use GSBs and Nacets and have been very satisfied with both.
Try a steeper angle, the design provides great rigidity and no blade chatter.

I don't find my .95 picky about blades. Nacets are the blade I use the most and I use them in all of my razors. I have a large stock of them because I like them a lot. I also have a decent stock of GSB's, and then a few Personna Reds, Feathers, 7o'clock blacks, and Crystals. I have used them all in the Timeless and even a couple of others. All worked well.Just completed my first shave.

Congrats on your new Timeless razor....great products. I have the bronze and really like it. Nice heft and smooth shaver.
