Thanked: 90Coti vs Escher
I know this is just my judgement and subjective. I had been trying to decide if I wanted to get an Escher or not. So I did a cheek to cheek comparision. I had two razors both around 1800 with similar steal properties from Sheffield. I had one which I honed on my coti ( I am new to this so I would think others could do better) and one that was honed by a razor restorer on an escher. I then shaved with both about two times. Stropped on royal linen and horse hide strop between shaves. Then last night I shaved the right side with the escher blade and the left side with the coti blade.
Conclusion from all use. I cannot tell the difference between the two (maybe the coti glided a bit smoother not sure). So I think I will stick with coti unless the left side grows out quicker than the right. Doesn't seem that way yet though. I guess if I found an Escher cheap Ha ha then I might pull the trigger.
Hope this doesn't cause any arguments. I know others have their preferences I just had to judge for myself.
