Nice one
Sounds good to me, pleased you are happy with your purchase, have you anything to say regarding finnish and fit....packaging ect. Just impatiant reallyTried it out today with the two-dot plate. I had a bit of initial difficulty injecting the blade. I loaded one and immediately loaded another in approved injector manner. I found that the second blade wanted to inject over the top of the first and wouldn't push the first out. A bit of horsing around suggested that this was some artefact of the machine oil residue on the blades and it seems OK now.
Well! I need a mild razor or I turn into a living red blotch but this is the mildest thing I've ever used. I really felt that nothing was happening. I persevered through the shave and found that it HAD happened. I got a nice, irritation-free DFS but still hadn't felt anything. Strange effect - but it did the job.
Tomorrow I'll have a go with the three-dot plate. Maybe I'll feel the shaving in progress!
Overall impression is excellent. Packaging well thought out and enhances the overall impression. Razor is compact and sits well in the hand. Standard of finish is high. I would give this razor as a gift as well as being happy with it for myself.Sounds good to me, pleased you are happy with your purchase, have you anything to say regarding finnish and fit....packaging ect.

It will be interesting to see if the finnish differs from the v1 and if there are other changes that can be seen, I do like the look of the new packaging , very smart. One thing I've noticed is the dots on the plates seem to be deeper, only a small thing I know but something I noticed.Overall impression is excellent.

Intresting, thanks.I believe all the v1 base plates ended up being CNC machined (due to issues w/ an early batch of cast ones if memory serves me right). I believe, once again, that all the v2 base plates are cast.
