I have the same FaTip LE to use soon. The Rapira PL is also the next blade on my list to try. I'm looking forward to trying the FaTip.

The Rapira Platinum Lux is my favourite blade, it performs well in even the worst razors ;-)

@Wayne Pritchard I heard they will be releasing the Open Comb version in another 6 weeks, sigh, it is an endless money-pit this shaving thing..

I also want a Gamechanger bit can't seem to find any in stock anywhere. Maybe if we can get enough of us committed, we can persuade one of the UK suppliers to order us some?

Anthony at Shavelounge has told me that they will be re-stocking the Gamechanger as soon as they become available again.

That's good news! Did he mention how long he thinks that might be?

He wasn't sure but said maybe the next month or two.

That's very interesting. An Open Comb version really floats my boat but now I want both.

Ideal. I'm sure I can dip in to my 3017 stash to keep me ticking over until then!

I wonder if Anthony could be considered for vendor of the year ( if he hasn't been previously). Shavelounge are really excellent, imo.
