Timeless 0.95 question

[Mikey J]

Rapira Swedish Supersteel is what worked for me on the passaround. Went from rough/inefficient to buttery smooth with the change of a blade.

Wish they worked for me, I have a few hundred of them..

Unfortunately I never got a good shave out of my Timeless, I really tried with it but sadly it was soon on it's way.

I find mine really smooth. It does seem to turn a lesser blade into something really good. Maybe try a milder blade.

This is interesting as considering adding a 95 to my den.

What handle tones down the timeless 95? The pineapple sure looks good.

I have the pineapple and it is a heavy handle. I liove it on the .095 but it won't tone it down. I find the razor very smooth and has never never been harsh for me.

My Timeless is a 0.95 scalloped Base Plate with 14 x 85mm dimple handle.Still experimenting with blades. To date I found the Astra Superior Platinum Double Edge work best me.

I have their stock handle from when the razor was first released TRH-1. One of the best handles I've used and definitely provides excellent balance mating very well with the 0.95mm OC head.

Hi everyone,
I also have the Timeless Titanium scalloped base and cap the 0,95 version, and I also think that for everyday shaving (personna platinum) is too much for my skin.
Thinking to change the titanium with the SS with the 0,68 smooth base plate, dont know if I have to give more time. My Rockwell 6s I use it with the plate 4 and the Personna platinum blades with no issues.

I also have the 0.68 scalloped base plate. Paired with a sharp blade this is my preferred daily driver.

I too found the ti 0.95 OC to feel slightly more rough the the polished SS option. Nothing uncomfortable but definitely more teeth feel. I do however highly recommend you try the 0.95 mm SB in titanium. It is incredibly smooth and very efficient. Smoothest I've found in the 0.95mm configuration. I found lower gapped plates to not offer a huge difference in 'mildness' over this plate.
