Questions on Sabi T2 and Matador Toro Mastiff

[mikelz777]

I think I may be interested in buying either a Sabi T2 or a Matador Toro Mastiff (Corto). Is there any difference between the two other than the matador logo on the head and the engraving on the base? I've read mixed reviews about the head on the Sabi T2 and was wondering if the head on the Matador is a little more refined.

I currently shave with a Fatboy and a Slim set on 7 as well as a Merkur slant. Do you know how the aggressiveness of the Sabi or the Matador would compare?

I had a Matador Toro Mastiff. I think the handle is the same. The head on the Toro Mastiff is very aggressive in my opinion (blade projects substantially beyond the cap/guard tangent line) and tore my face up. That same head is now on its way in a PIF box to various other people - may I never see its evil form defiling my home again. Not that I'm biased.

The handle, on the other hand, is still in my house and is my "heavy grippy handle". Well worth the price for the handle alone.
