Thank you
So, I had an “want to buy” post here and on a spanish forum, over there on the first couple of days I got the Aluminium and the Stainless Steel, this was 2-3 months ago, but coincidentally, last week, another portuguese entered that forum, saw the post and here we are

SELL IT TO ME

@J349
The brass General is a great razor
I'd be very interested to know how it compares to your SS?

@Jfett
Don't think you have room for the brass General now?

When I use it I’ll comment on that For now, in the hand the brass feels heavier to me, but it’s a little lighter, according to my scale at least, maybe the shorter and larger handle offers this perspective.

V1 or V2 in stainless? Surely the V2 is lighter than the brass.

Sorry, I went to weight them again and I misread it first time, Brass is 10g heavier.

Thanks, Joseph.
I used Stirling a few years ago and considered it a good, average soap, but nothing special. Thought I'd revisit it now that I've acquired a few synthetic brushes and they really bring it alive. They've also upped my experience with other soaps, too.

True. I find it hard to reach for anything other than synthetic for precisely this reason. You are always guaranteed an exceptional lather.
