Titan H1 Arrived

[Gordy2]

Have not used it yet. Very nice razor. I really like the weight and thickness of the handle. (Shave evaluation several posts below)





Handle comparison: from left to right: Tradre OC, Weber, Feather, Titan

Wow ......just wow!

 

[TallyShave]

That is quite the lineup...you will have to report back on the shave!

I'm looking forward to hearing about how the shaves of all your pictured razors compare and contrast!

The Shave:
Used a Med Prep blade. To me the shave was equal to somewhere between the Tradre OC and the Weber but a little smoother. It's a heavy razor but feels good and has a nice handle thickness for my big paws. As our member said who tested the Razor, it is not an R41 for sure but it's not a Newbee razor either IMO. I had a 99.5% BBS in 2 passes, an admittedly two weepers on the chin (new razor or bad technique), but I have a very, very, very close shave. It's a good looking tool, very well made but I did have to work getting the blade to sit right with the different type of blade holding design. Just have to get use to that. The B&B testers wrote great evaluations, spot on, THANKS GUYS!

I see that you as a retired sea man know his shaving tools pretty well. I can understand how u feel about the close shave. It is a very well made and heavier razor that requires no effort to give you great results. Why did u have issues putting in the blade? Was it due to design or just anxious hands? (Navy,thanks for serving)

Beautiful! How does it shave?

Thanks Alex. At first I just did not get the blade sitting just right onto the two pegs on the top. I then put the bottom on and then the handle and tightened it down, the blade kind of jumped over but it was felt and noticed right away. Yes well made and heavy. A razor you just let glide on your face with ZERO pressure.

It shaves smooth and very very well. I think a lot of people will get close to a BBS on two passes.

Looks very nice. May have to put that on my Christmas list. I just bought an Ikon so I have to wait a little bit. It's a very sturdy looking tool.
