Raw, machine finish. Will have distinct machining and sander marks.
I made my first prototype 5 years ago, and have finally gotten the machines to make these razors 100% in-house! Some have requested a cheaper razor than our original, $350 razor. This is the same fantastic razor without all the hand finishing and fancy packaging. Still has the same great performance and built-for-generations solid-titanium quality, but without the bling that makes our presentation razor cost what it does. Packaged in a mint tin and a 3d printed insert - insert and tin design may vary from photo.
This razor is designed to be mild, yet efficient, low on blade feel, and perfect for your everyday shave. The stubble groove is wide and virtually clog-proof. Efficient enough for a single pass shave, but mild enough that a 3 pass would be no issue, and buffing is just fine. I'm not sure if it's useful to compare this razor to others or not, but the blade gap is 1.12mm It's recommended to ride the cap, rather than the safety bar for best results.
This razor is 100% titanium, and 100% made in the USA. We take just over 1 lb of solid titanium and carve it down to a razor that weighs in at less than 2 ounces (15g head, 40g handle).
I stand behind my work 100% and any defects will be repaired or replaced free of cost.
