The General in brass

Feather supers I've found to give the best shave in this razor too, outstanding!
 
Hi @FrankieG

I received the handle today and sadly it doesn't fit (only screws down a couple of mm) so I'll try sending it back for a refund. I can confirm that it is only 40g and 95mm so it must be slightly hollow.

All is not lost though I did pick up a lovely Windrose Darwin handle in Gold Damascus that is a nice match.
 
Thank you for your feedback @dowsing . Sorry the Hibco brass handle didn't work out. The Windrose handle sounds beautiful though
 


My General arrived on Monday and I used it for the first time yesterday evening.

I loaded the razor with a Feather pro and did a great job in moving down a few days worth of stubble. It's as aggressive a razor as my face can handle and I'm pleased that it performed so efficiently, without any nicks or irritation.

My concerns about the handle being slippery were unfounded, and I suspect that this was because of the superb balance the razor has.

It's definitely a keeper.
