    My Mongoose came in today I had to pick up the £21 duty which is always hard to swollow, but after seeing the razor all was forgotten the fit and finish on the razor is superb the polished head is flawless not even the faintest swirl, I was also very pleased with my Jurgen Hempel custom Titanium blue anodized handle I choose a while ago it really compliments the stainless steel polished head perfectly.

    I think I'll keep it on there it doubles up as a safety measure when you remove th handle it stops the base plate and head parting company, plus it stops the metal hande marking the base plate.

    How is the balance with the heavy stainless head and light titanium handle ? Beautiful set BTW.

    Well Jimmy that's something I noticed immediately I haven't given the razor a shave yet but I can't see it being much of a issue I wouldn't fancy using it with a stainless steel handle though, I'm pleased I purchased the Titanium I think it makes a big difference.

    Jamie, would be interested to know how this razor compares to the original Cobra (guess the name is not a coincidence!), do you have one of those as well? Mine is great, can't imagine a 'better' safety although the Mongoose finish looks tops....
