The 0.68 OC is likely a very nice addition to my Timeless .95 OC, which is almost to efficient to be used on a daily basis (which sharp blades, that is). I've the feeling the .68 OC baseplate will fit the daily driver job easier.
Cheers!
I forgot about Timeless Tuesdays. I had already planned to use one my hybrid head 0.68OCs later this afternoon. I have one head set up with a SS Scalloped Cap and Ti base plate and the other one with the Ti Scalloped Cap and SS base plate.. both with the Ti Crown handle.... perfect balance for me.
That felt a bit too head heavy for me.... That's why I ended up with two hybrid razor heads mounted on the Ti Crown handles I already had.Same goes for the all SS head mounted on the Crown handle.
It wasn't cheap but when I decided to forego the Wolfman WR4, I had the funds for the experiment.... I ended up with a complete SS razor as well.. their dimpled SS handle (85mm in length). After using the lighter Ti Crowns for so long, it feels a bit heavy to me, but I'm going to shave with it and see how it feels when I actually use it. That one has their scalloped base plate. I've used that plate once and it was quite nice.
I see.
What's the weight of your Ti/SS hybrid heads?
28.4 grams and 34.4 grams.
SS .68
