Ok who has one on order?

B, D & F en-route....
Glad to hear that Gus looking forward to your review!
I like your thought process. I went OC C/D. However, you were smarter. You jumped a plate between each one you purchased. That'll give you a broader range of shaves.
You're a braver man than I Gunga Din. This is my first Karve, and I have B and C plates and a 3 1/4" handle on the way. I was all set to order the C, D and ma-a-a-aybe E plates until I read Chris's newsletter. I figure plates can be added - perhaps pay a little more; perhaps bleed a bit less.
But anyway, good luck Gus. I too am looking forward to your review.

I’m sitting this one out till I hear some reviews, the combs look rather thick. Could be a great shave, I’ll wait and see what the masses think. Gotta give him credit it is a great looking razor at a great price.
Thank you my friend. When I had the SB Karve I had D,E,F and I liked the E best so maybe a D OC. Looking forward to hearing what you guys think.Sitting it out? Come on you've helped spur my RAD. Can I help repay the favor? I have the B-D OC plates on the way. I'd let you borrow, but you're probably an E or F guy.
Hopefully, the F OC plate will feel like a G+ and give good blade feel with decent smoothness. I'll find out soon enough.....
Hello,
I have a (F)abulous base on the way. +1 on the G+ feel. A very efficient, smooth modern O/C made out of brass almost automatically gets place in top five rotation.
Now if only they would make a slant..........................
Cheers

I couldn’t agree with you more concerning a modern Brass OC razor. I’m actually hoping it will give as close a feel to my ‘11 R41 but, in a much more rigid design with the inherent smoothness that a Brass made razor can give. Fingers crossed....
