I presume it's stainless as it doesn't say carbon on the tuck, just special steel.

I own the aluminum RazoRock Hawk V2 and The aluminum Colonial General. I used both for a few days, both had Schick Proline blades. I love the look and design of the HAWK V2 but it was just a little too mild for me, the design is so good that it tames a very sharp blade, this would a great beginner razor. The Colonial General has more blade feel and it is simply an amazing razor.

A DRAKKAR NOIR SHAVE - I acquired a PAL adjustable a year ago & finally used for the first time, Fun shave! but I still like the injecto-matic better - I used the middle setting, next time I will go with the most aggressive setting.

Peace, Jamie

August 17th - Shave of the Night!
Lather Bros. continues to release cool new scents & there really making fun and cool labels! There tallow soap is just great & there thick and cooling balm is in my top 3 for artisan balms (Soap Commander, PAA star jelly, & lather bros are my favorites). I got another Lady Everysharp - for under 10 bucks! and it came with the Blannk/dummy blade - so this was a virgin razor until last night - as always it was a great shave and the vintage schick chromium was perfect - the plus platinums feel sharper for me & I think the chromiums were the bargain blade that schick offered back in the day? either way its still a great blade - Peace, Jamie
