Should've gotten the Blackbird years ago, before, the Karve CB Brass and Stainless Steel.

I know exactly how you feel and glad you love it.. trust me when I say try a Feather and BIC in it, Nacet also excellent but for some reason the German Wilkies (which i like) dont go well with this razor

I have never felt a feather so smooth in any razor prior to putting it into a BB, the WR2 came close
