Without any doubt the Ti Blackbird provides the closest and most efficient shave of any razor I own! The other side of that coin is when I use it I have to pay attention to what I am doing. To those of you that are straight razor users I sometimes get ā€œgoose bumpsā€ looking at your posts and thinking of how much skill you must have to safely and efficiently use that razor. God Bless you all!

Proraso pre-shave, House of Mammoth Sonder soap and aftershave, Ti two-tone Blackbird, Tatra platinum, HAGs Faceless balm. Flawless super close 2.5 pass shave. HoM has unique scents but Ben’s soap base is amazing.

That handle/head combo always looked strange to me, clandestine handle with a classy gold head, cool though, and great shaver.
I like that.. clandestine handle. Black and gold goes really well on some razors, not all. For instance, I dig the Tech, but the gold SA109 looks too 007, too over the top (please don’t hate on me, I love Bond!). Sort of like an old Les Paul Custom with gold hardware vs a black and gold anything else. I like to imagine that it was an officer’s razor, hence the gold head. Navy lieutenant, South Pacific maybe. Or not. Agreed 100%, a really great shaver.
