My PILS is in the queue to be my favourite razor, when I next use it, and before the one following after. That's the case with all my razors, bar the Futur, which I loathe and despise. Worse than a girl with a wardrobe full of party frocks.
Certainly, many of the s/s razors are on the "very expensive" spectrum. That's where the Rocca and some of the stainless RazoRocks score, by way of being not quite so highly priced. I see the black-handled Rocca is now around £75.
The R89 Grande and Rocca handles are, I think, both 95mm. The RazoRock Mamba/Game Changer are s/s heads and the Mamba has a long 100mm titanium handle, and the price of these in the UK seems to be around the £75 mark, which to me seems good value. With all these razors, there is the facility to swap handles for different length and design ones in stainless, at reasonable cost.
An expensive upgrade is always a leap of faith, and I personally think that a lot of sensible people, after doing their homework, manage it successfully and enjoy what they get.
