Short Comb and Karve D. I like the handling and feel if the Karve. Edge Karve on the beard, head shave a toss up. BIC (1).
Still not close , 72g SC, 97g Karve, 21g difference is in the handle. The Karve handle unfortunately doesn't fit the SC snugly.I'm not surprised they're close in performance. With weight added to the common bar handle how close is the weight between them?

Yeah I know, one of these days. That Karve handle is marvelousLong live the SC!
Get an 8mm washer and then you can use any handle with the SC!
That looks like an Old Type base and a Fatip cap...
Genius idea. You should suggest it to razorock - type of thing they might do.Yeah I thought there would be a considerable difference.
I've been wondering why razor makers that offer interchangeable bases only make the bases with varying gaps. It would be just as easy I'd think to keep gap a constant and vary blade exposure slightly from negative to positive. Five bases all with the same gap but, for example, bases #1 and #2 having, respectively, .004" and .002" negative exposure. Base #3 neutral exposure, while bases #4 have .002" positive exposure and #5 .004" positive exposure, with maybe an option of .006" for those who like moar! lol
I'll take mine with an .010" 'G' (gap) and .004" '+X' (exposure) base, please. Then maybe step up to a .006" '+X' base.
That could be done just by varying the dimensions of the SB/OC. Basic geometry would stay the same and variable blade gaps could still be implemented. Its more work, R&D and machine time, but it would also be the only such design on the market.
I like that idea and its now mine lol, but, any razor designers/makers feel free to contact me in regard to royalties lol.

I bought the Spitfire etc caps from Shapways. On the R41 these increase blade exposure considerably

Many of us have successfully used injector blades in Gem razorsIn my mind there is another idea but don't know how to accomplish it . I would like to make an adapter to use Injector blades in Gem razors That would expand the blade options for the SE users.
Can you please share more details (which razor and how ) ?Many of us have successfully used injector blades in Gem razors
Schick injector blade in a Micromatic?Can you please share more details (which razor and how ) ?
Hmmm. A Schick Twin blade in the MMOC...
