    Hi Chris, I completely agree with you about Karve razors. The Overlander is an excellent razor (and the Karve CB razor is also outstanding). Also B&M produces some of the best shaving soaps out there. While B&Ms’s scents can be hit or miss, the quality is always there. Looks like the wrist is slowly getting better! Have a great day everyone!

    Nice setup and shave Chris. Catching up on some vids. For me, Omnibus is the best I’ve tried so far(haven’t tried A&E yet but at top of list). I am on a software freeze to use some up. I just received the Karve CB and had my first shave SB D- excellent the best 1st I’ve had on smoothness and efficiency. Just ordered OC C and and a 3” Gladius handle.
    Did Chris from Karve say when he will sell just the Overlander head?

    @DeeDeeDanone Před 2 lety +1

    The Overlander has become my favourite razor, it's almost impossible to get any irritation from it, it's so we'll considered in its design..
    If I have any minor gripes, I don't love the smell of wet brass. Wet brass is also quite a tacky material so it can stick/drag/suction (however you experience it) when there is no obvious lather or residual lather. Minor complaints easily avoided, I find I get to shave over a residual slickness area twice and then it's gone so it's time to relather.

    • @IAMCDB

  • @cameronutt6383

    I don't have much experience with B&M. I've only tried Leviathan, a scent I liked, but didn't love. It was good quality soap, so I'll most likely try something else from them down the road.
    As Far as blades go, I started with a pack of 20 Shark blades, they were fine. I bought 100 Astra platinums for less than $10 bucks (still working on that). I tried a pack of 10 feather blades, which performed well, but not well enough to justify the price. I also tried the Personna blades that came with my Era, but they seemed to cause some irritation.
    So Astra has essentially been my go to, and they work pretty well for me. I'd be open to suggestions for similar blades, but It's hard to beat Astra's value.
