Single edge razors

[NurseDave]

Gents,

Have been thinking about trying out an SE razor.
Have eyes on the RR Hawk V3, since I've enjoyed their offerings.

Would love opinions/suggestions if you're willing to offer them.

Thanks,
Tom

I don't have the V3, but I did have an older version. I have to say I love artist club blade razors. Their stiffness makes them a much better shaver for me. I think the Hawk is an inexpensive way of trying them out.

I was only ever able to try a v1 but sadly it did not get along well with me. Just couldn’t get a close shave. The v2 and 3 are supposed to have improvements of course, just never got my hands on one.

I much prefer the Vector and General brass that I’ve got now.

@BarberDave you like the vector better, right?

 

[BarberDave]

I do

I do

I can appreciate that.
Not sure I can justify the cost, esp for my first SE.

Trust me it is actually worth it, and now , or soon you can get the vector in colors.

This^^ The only "SE" that i would say is like a straight is a Rolls Razor which pretty much is a straight on a stick.

1945 Rolls razor inside it's storage case with honing stone and strop intact with original blade.
