One morning I found myself purchasing a razor.
I received it yesterday and would like to give a brief review .
I'm afraid of alcohol.
Stando Polska Silesia brass
Specs
Length: about 87mm
Weight of the head: 46 g
Handle weight: 65g (Suomi)
Handle diameter: 12 mm
Handle length: 80 mm
Blade gap: 1.02
Finish: Satin matte
I like the satin finish, but .......
Again, I couldn't resist and polished it before using it.
The glossy brass is the best.
Although stando's handle threads always leave metal cutting debris
Once the shavings are removed, the precision is as good as that of high-end products.
The usual metal box has been replaced by a paper cushioned box, which is more protective than the metal box.
Gillette Platinum 5pcs included.
Blade exposure is neutral to slightly negative.
Silesia is on the mild side according to Stando's aggressive chart
Since I was in the mood, I used the Gillette Platinum and shaved for two days beard.
I felt the comfortable feel of the blades and was able to shave smooth and worry free.
I got a great BBS with only 3 passes.
Yes, it is mild, but I feel it is very efficient.
The larger gap allows some freedom of angle.
I think it is slightly less efficient than the Timeless 0.95OC and the Blackbird SB.
Of course, the smoothness is up there.
I am sure it would be smoother and safer with a sharper blade.
Silesia is a great daily razor.
Speaking of which, I was worried about the polished Suomi handle slipping, but it exhibited a pretty good grip, good stuff.
Note: This razor is the brass version, so there is a slight difference from the stainless version (the gap for the stainless version is 1.00).
But they should perform about the same.
It is significantly smoother and little less efficient than chors from the same manufacturer.
Silesia I like it
Have a good shaving life everyone!
