I like that all of the different razor parts are interchangeable. Tempted to pick up a ss plate for my brass razor.
The aluminum razor is on the website but shows sold out. Only a couple of base plates in SB available A-D and the price for a complete razor is 93 CAD + shipping. I am a little disappointed as I was looking for a G plate.
I refreshed the webpage throughout the launch time but I never saw the razor come in stock! WTH?
Ah well, it’s probably best I don’t spend anymore this month on shaving gear.
Dude, it launches in 7 minutes.
Well, I ended up ordering a 3.25”/C. Not sure why, as I’m completely content with my current stable of razors. I think it was because, 1) I really do like the Karve design, and 2) I passed on other recent aluminum offerings - notably the Lupo and the Timeless - and I wouldn’t mind seeing how I like a high-quality aluminum razor. Plus, it does look pretty cool.
They went really fast.
Here is a comment from the Karve Facebook page "Sold out in 3 minutes. Never had a chance".
I like heavy razors, so long handles brass and stainless razors are right up my alley. The lighter aluminum and possible future titanium razors won't be on my wish list.
was hoping the aluminum would be cheaper.
I'm always a bit surprised by this. Additional weight does help when shaving with gravity, but that benefit disappears if you are one of those people that shaves in different directions.
I completely agree.Amazing business model that Chris has developed!! Huge waiting list for SS and in the mean time he's send a big old *$%# &*@ to all that are on the list so he can sell a couple Aluminum razors!! This guy still has his priorities wrong even after all the bad press he's received and yet some people stand right beside him and accept it.... CRAZY!!
