This is my second razor from TI, and after seeing how great both perform (the other being a Celebration Silver Wing), I would buy another TI in a heartbeat. They take a bit of finicky work on the hones to get the edge just right, but once it's there, it's REALLY there. Once you get the edge perfect, It will hold it well, which is due to the hardness of the C135 steel. I prefer the 7/8" of this razor over the 5/8" of my Silver Wing, as it seems to give me a bit better shave when I have more beard to chop off. This razor gives me a nice, smooth shave every time...and it looks good while doing it!
