Phoenix Alpha Ecliptic?

I was also curious about this razor. I love the idea that more companies are making reproductions of expensive vintage unobtanium razors. I wasnt sure about the aluminium, but Ive got the bakelite open comb from Phoenix, an I think its an amazing razor. So Ill eventually bite on this one to I think.

Excellent. Let us know what you think!

It's definitely got more substantial feel than the Bakelite. I was shocked with the solidity of this razor. I've used other aluminum razors, all of which feel flimsy, this feels unbreakable, just light. I'm in love with it mate
 
The aluminium they use in modern razors is a strong, rigid and corrosion resistant.
Not like vintage razors which don't last and usually fail with the thread first.
Don't let this stop you purchasing a modern one.
Tempted too with this one (y)
 
I love the look of the razor and have been tempted but I'm hanging on for the Phoenix Gem SE, coming soon, I think
