    My new 6/8 TI next to my dovo shavette. It's like shaving with an axe! Did a complete shave with it yesterday with 2 passes the razor was definitely shave ready, I'm really impressed with how this razor arrived.

    I was surprised at how different it was to use compared to the Shavette. The Shavette is definitely a little more forgiving if you don't get the angle quite right, but when I got the angle right with the TI it was a pleasure to use.

    The dreadnought point is not for the feint hearted that's for sure! There is a tiny little sharp point right at the end of the blade and if you have the wrong angle it will bite you and let you know it's there!

    Very happy with it I'm glad I spent the money and got the razor I wanted!

    Happy shaving my fellow shavers!

    Congratulations on your new TI. It seems you have made a choice that will serve you well and apparently arrived correctly honed. May your new razor bring you many wonderful shaves.

    You know, a razor is one of the few things you can buy that with little care will outlive you no matter your age.
