I hadn't thought about selling the head only but why not? I will arrange to get some images made up tomorrow and put them up for sale at £15.00 each, they share the same thread as Merkur, Parker, Muhle etc.

Believe it it not, a break from shaving is a relief sometimes. A regular buyer alerted me to this thread.
The Braveheart and our Intensive Moisturiser which was launched last Friday have made it to shaving blogs in USA and Turkey. News travels fast these days.
Best,
Brian

I am well familiar with Iain's handles and very nice they are too! I should have said I wanted a different handle but on further examination, as I'm looking for another 'shortie' before Iain is back in operation, I'll pass on this one as it's slightly too long.

Well done mate, I guess you were clearing out your Muhle (that I bought from you) to make room for it LOL! Would love to know how you get on with the new head...

First of all the service from exec shaving was top notch. you may think the postage is excessive but for that you get guaranteed special delivery with next day service and a well packaged delivery - excellent, better than waiting days
the head looks very similar to an ej89 / muhle r89 / merkur 34hd. used today on two days growth and had a DFS with ease
definatly more bite than the razors ive mentioned - at £15 (plus P&P) well worth the money for the head. if you had one of those razors and was after somthing a little more agressive i would recoment this in a heartbeat
its well built, it doesnt look or feel like a cheap chinese copy but it doesnt look like it was made by those manufacturers, that sounds strange i know, i cant put my finger on why. The plating quality is good.
I wouldnt buy the handle - i think its over priced. Tou can buy a good weber, tradere or custom handle that will be just as good for a lot cheaper. like i said its an 89 with bite so would go on an ej handle no problem or for extra your existing SS handles.
It looks like exec shaving is trying to build their own product range as instead of rebranding other products ala bluebeards revenge. this is very admiral. i wish (and hope they do) they had made this head out of SS as then there is a british rival to weber because the quality of the shave is just as good if not better.
The Exec shaving own brand balm is excellent, one of the best ive used
just as a side note i normally use an ATT H-1 or R-1. this razors' head is different to every other razor. it has a much lower profile than other heads [ think tyres
] and hence i halways have to find that different angle to get it right for non ATT heads and also to get my ATT angle back afterwards.
