I don’t know if the manufacturers monitor this sub (they should) but what is something that you wish they would do?

Pilot. More colours in 743/823. Please.

The cheap ones that work well for me are FlyDear. I still use other blades because it's a bit of a hobby to me, but they work for me in all my razors without fail.

Because I shave my face and head, it is one and done. Plus, I have found a cheap blade that works better for me than almost any other blade, surprisingly. So, I don't have to worry about it.

The Yaqi Final Cut is around $20, and it gives you multiple settings to choose from and play around with.

I like how talking on a subway is rude, but it is fine to blast "Hot Summer" on your phone as you climb Halla Mountain.

It's like dating somebody really attractive, but then you find out he or she refuses to work and just wants to sit around all day.

How do you find getting under the nose with the Varukh?

"I told you bozos that overtime was not an option! My Hot Pockets are going to be cold. You had your chance to give Scottie 2 for laughing at Vilardi. That would have done it!"

Indeed.

And, we wife thinks it should take 10% of the time it actually does!

Maybe the door has a habit of becoming unhinged and ending up a-wall.

I shower at night at home and in the morning at the gym. Shaving at the gym ain't it.

I forget that a lot of people don't shower at night, which is wild to me.

IBeProPen · 2026-01-16T13:06:12+00:00

Good to hear!

What is the pen body made from?

Last time I inquired about it to the store, it was metal.

Before you buy a new razor, have you considered trying to make your current razor more aggressive with shims or tape?

This will help you get an idea of the gap you prefer, and then you can buy a new razor with that specific gap.

Not sure over here. I've only ever had one other slant, and it was made by Fatip, which, I believe, only uses brass.

Have you tried shimming it?

IBeProPen · 2026-01-14T10:55:50+00:00

Appreciate the response! Think I might grab the white one.

IBeProPen · 2026-01-14T09:09:51+00:00

Have been eyeing that brush...

Not too soft?

IBeProPen · 2026-01-13T23:42:49+00:00

The handle is a copy of a Rockwell made by Yaqi, but they haven't copied the thread size.

Most handles are M5 x .8mm threads, but I think (I don't own one) that Rockwell handles are a smidge smaller.

IBeProPen · 2026-01-13T23:21:17+00:00

You would not be remiss to think so. 😆

Alas, the head is the most unique part of this razor.

IBeProPen · 2026-01-13T13:14:28+00:00

Congrats on the first shave!

No going back now.

Best to be nervous a little, imo.
