Timeless Slant Razor First Impressions double-edge Aluminum safety razor 

Thanks, Steve! I just feel like a non-adjustable made of stainless steel is not worth $1,000 and I don't care how much lipstick you put on that pig. The razor is mild, a very mild feel to yet but a very nice shaver. I've used it 3 times now and am glad I made the purchase. Have a great week!

I'm loving it! I've done a couple side by side-by-side shaves with two other slants. The Merkur 37c and The Konsul. I can't believe how mild it feels while delivering above-average efficiency!

@@Tobins_throwbacks You're right. It's a winner. I'm going to try out all my good blades and see what it's capable of. It's feather tonight.

Thanks Quinn! It's what I look for in a review myself, so I figure it's what I should deliver. Have a great weekend!

Thank you sir! First two shaves were great!

Thanks! So far so good 👍

Well said Lee, I couldn't have said it better myself. I've just learned as a content creator I have a responsibility not to overhype stuff. And there is no way a stainless steel non-adjustable razor would ever deliver a $1,000 shave. The last thing I want is to add to the chaos. It's great that people are making them. I don't think he'll sell very many, not in this economy. But, with enough content creators hyping it maybe it will. I had an opportunity to be included in the pass-around of the Tedulas. But declined because I knew exactly how the shave would go. It would be a good or maybe even great shave but not a $1,000 shave. So, rather than say anything negative about the product in a "formal review" video I declined. I've passed up on a few reviews for similar reasons. The main thing they all have in common is a product that doesn't deliver for the price. And, I have other content I'd rather create. When I buy something it's different from when it's sent to me. I don't know exactly how to verbalize it. Two years of RU-vid reviews have altered my perspective...if that makes sense. Have a good one Lee!

Thank you!

Thank you! I got the Pirate head at Disneyland in like 2002. I'm going to do my second shave with it tonight when I get home. Can't decide which blade I want to use next.

@@Tobins_throwbacks nice!

You and me both! A few soaps out there are nuts!

Much appreciated!

It is!

@@Tobins_throwbacks I used it today and it really surprised me. There is a large gap but the slant is almost imperceptible . I felt the blade but there was no irritation and the shave was very good. For $54.00, it is a great travel razor.

@@WallyPankowski-wd8gb I couldn't agree more!

Thanks, you too! Money is getting tight for everyone, it's nice to see a new product at a price most can afford.

@@Tobins_throwbacks that's true!

Thanks! I've wondered the same thing! If I fall in love with this one, it may drive me to buy it. Have a good weekend brother!

Hey Steve! If you ever by some rare chance want to re-home that razor let me know. I'd love to work out a deal for one. Hope you had a good weekend

@@Tobins_throwbacks I was bummed when PAA stopped selling the stainless and aluminum versions of this razor. I waited and watched a long time on eBay for one. I found mine about 2 years ago for around $130. I’m a PAA geek and love the razor. For now I don’t want to part with it, but if the day comes I’ll keep you in mind.

I had a great shave with it last night. I had a Wizamet in it. Can't wait to use it again today

It's on my list now too! I got their blue shave bowl for only $5 from a "Scratch and Dent " and I am SUPER impressed!

I've used it three times now, I would say it feels milder than the 37c.

Right? I still need to go use it. Our daughter has friends over so I got distracted with them and a pizza dinner. I'm a daily shaver as well. There is just something about slants that I love. More than just physical, I'll talk about it when I review. Replying to your comment just gave me an idea lol. And same here, I LOVE my 6C and 6S. They shave as well or better than most or all. Hope your weekend is off to a great start! By the way, you got me reading comics again! I haven't read comics in years! Thanks for turning me onto that website!

@@Tobins_throwbacks Just received this razor and had one shave with it using a Personna Platinum blade. This did a good job with almost no blade feel. I am sure after a few more shaves I will get use to the weight difference from my usual stainless steel razors my shaves will be even better. I will also try a sharper blade. Never thought I would like a slant razor. The price is at a great point and this could even be great for a beginner. Have a great day. 😀

@williammurphy1756 awesome! I enjoy all of my aluminum razors and slants and this is the best of both worlds! This has become one of my favorite slants!

Hey Brian I had a Henson when they first came out I kept it for a few weeks and then sold it. That was before they came out with all the other plates and stuff though back when I was just the one razor in a handful of colors

@Tobins_throwbacks I have not tried their mild. I have the medium aggression, and it works well for me. They also have titanium, which I believe are heaviest than the aluminum. I also heard of some people putting a stainless steel handle on the head to add weight.

I was wondering about have it would shave, I haven't used mine yet. I'm going to use it here shortly. I was afraid of exactly what you mentioned. That's why I mentioned the money and the cost in the beginning. I rarely use my Tuxedo, maybe once or twice a year, and considering what I paid for it is what burns me the most. I bought it when it first came out like I did the Slant. So, I'm hoping I don't kick myself too hard considering I only paid $54 for it. And don't get me wrong, I love my Konsul. I do, I just have a hard time promoting it and telling guys that they need one. I'll come back after my shave and let you know how the first one went. How many times did you use it?

@Tobins_throwbacks For the money it's a great newbie razor. Like you I have too many razors as it is..

@@Tobins_throwbacks A very slight negative exposure can become neutral with the right blade. I'd try it with a Kai or a Feather and see what it feels like since they are slightly wider than standard and raise the blade exposure from the factory numbers. Neutral exposure razors have been great for me as someone who has sensitive skin and likes to shave frequently. As with everything YMMV. Seems like it was built to be an approachable daily driver. Nothing wrong with that, but it won't be for everyone, particularly if you really enjoy a lot of blade feel or have extremely coarse hair.

Mine didn't come with any blades.

That's cool to see different style of budget friendly razors

Hey Michael, sorry I meant to reply to this sooner. I'll do a top 5 video

@@Tobins_throwbacks cool. Thanks

😊 have a great weekend brother!

Thank you! Same too!@@Tobins_throwbacks

Right? And SOME content creators dish it out like there is no tomorrow! Not just shaving content creators, but across all genres/types/categories of reviews from Cell Phones to truck bed liners lol

Well said, brother! And yeah, I knew about the manufacturing process it's just lipstick 😉 Have a week!

@@Tobins_throwbacks Yep still waiting on your next brush review videos. And of course razors whenever you get new ones.

I got four shaves in with it and I'm liking it

When it comes to modern razors over $200 I've just never really felt like I got "my money's worth" out of most of my modern razors. I enjoy them don't get me wrong. But sooner or later the newness wears off and it becomes just another razor and I find myself using my cheaper razors as often or more often than the $200 plus ones. At least with vintage they retain their value and can be sold for the same that I purchased them for or more. Good luck doing that with most modern tho. Have a good weekend!

@@Tobins_throwbacks I agree 💯! Enjoy your weekend too, good sir.👊
