Cool and slimy
Hard to judge, would guess it is mild to medium at max and aimed at people changing from cartridges. The color is meant for people like me, with peers judging anthrazite and silver to be exciting and fresh colors for their car. 
Not much good to me. Karve will not ship to Australia
Also the new Project X handle?
I don't see it on Karve's website. Anyone have a link?
Must have just went live: The Bison Safety Razor - https://karveshaving.com/products/the-bison-safety-razor
Bison
- Blade gap - 0.71 mm
- Blade exposure - 0.06 mm
- Blade gap - 0.73mm
- Blade exposure - 0.07mm
I see it as very competitive, great price, easy to use, and ready to ship. Could be also like first Karve for many to attract people who still count money when looking for new razor 
Thank you for the link and enabling me
It looks like the specs are more mild than the Overlander, but it's a Karve so I must buy one. I guess I'm just a fan of Karve eh.
That's the spirit!Thank you for the link and enabling me

Likely some kind of multi coloured target audience...The colour to match the hair of their target audience.............., but I do like green.....
... but TBH, I'd consider the regular AL Karve CB the smarter (read: more versatile) choice, if one isn't keen on the Kermit razor.
Speaking about budget, the difference between the two razors is 20 bucks only...

I own 3 vehicles and they are all black. I would totally rock that lime green Karve if it was aggressive enough though! Looks super cool IMO.Hard to judge, would guess it is mild to medium at max and aimed at people changing from cartridges.

Yeah, like the looks, but likely mild and superlight, that's not my thing @SharpieB @SeaDiving. But let's see, I judged this book by its cover. Razors are always surprisingly, actual geometry is hard to determine just by looking, and we have only seen one-two photos so far.
I'm currently waiting on an SS Overlander. Hopefully it'll be shipped during the second week of December. I have to admit though, I'm somewhat intrigued with the tangerine colored Bison.
Looks like it's just a shade over the Henson mild for gap, and just a hair more exposure than the medium. Might be a really nice shaver, the detail on the machining, both top and bottom plate, looks really nice to me.

Well I have touch Overlander in person in Phoenix, thought handle was very good design.
The Bison theme has me scratching my head. Looks more like a single use plastic bag of sugary candy far away from the noble and brawny great plains roaming North American brown haired beast. Regardless, the product is underwhelming but if it shaves good, who cares. I like my brass CB.

I wonder if it's truly different from the Overlander? I realize there are other parameters to consider. Perhaps he's going to discontinue the alu version of the Overlander?
This was my first thought as well - chip into the Henson demographic.Hard to judge, would guess it is mild to medium at max and aimed at people changing from cartridges. The color is meant for people like me, with peers judging anthrazite and silver to be exciting and fresh colors for their car.
A Manscaped crossed one page I was surfing, and I see that they're offering a DE razor. Perhaps they always did and I didn't notice it.
If it's a new thing however, is says something about companies tapping the cartridge razor apostate demographic.
