I'm pretty sure you just did. But keep in mind that there are plenty of models in the Ferrari line-up. And Ferrari is not the only high-end make in the world. Then again, you might not want to take your Ferrari out every day. Start a rotation!

Hmm... I definitely wouldn't say no to a 7-day Ferrari rotation...

Cheers.

One of the reasons I'm glad for the SRD special is that a whole bunch of guys assume that if a razor is a heavy grind - that its silent - no feedback. Robert's blades put that entirely to rest. While I love the heavy grinds, if it doesn't talk while I shave, it doesn't satisfy and it doesn't stay in the rotation. For the full and near wedges - that feedback may be quite subdued, but if there's none - it goes. Over 3 dz heavy Sheffields. I haven't kept one. 'Not that they aren't handsome or made well - they are both - but no feedback. Now I can tell members to talk to anyone who has one of these blades if they want to hear about feedback in a heavy grind. Generally, the heavy Wackers are talkative (and a lovely shave). One Henckels heavy isn't the prettiest blade, but it talks like a full hollow, mowing off a week's growth in 2 passes. I suspect if more guys knew about what this was like, there'd be alot more demand for the heavy blades.

#54 is at home with me.Razor feels great in my hand. I am really looking forward to my next shave.
