Thread: Feather Stainless Steel Safety Razor

I dunno - stainless is pretty darn attractive qualities - I would be willing to buck up a few extra ponies for one of them - Ikons. the other 2 are flat out way too high for me - I would rather another straight for the same price.

In all fairness, now that a few people have treated themselves, I haven't heard a single negative comment about this razor. It's reckoned to be beautifully presented and a very well balanced razor which is neither too mild or too aggressive. Clearly it's going to last for a very long time, but then again some of us use 60 year old (and older) DEs regularly and antique straights so that really shouldn't be an issue. If one was to use it every day for the rest of one's life, the price would fade from the memory long before the shine went off it.

Good line. I'll have to remember to tell that to my wife the next time I buy a Custom razor.
