Beautiful design.

 

[Nav]

That head design is awesome!!

Stunning desing. Very modern handle too.

Needs more clarrity:

• "100% Solid Metal w/ a Stainless Steel Core"
• "Gleaming Electroplated Chrome Finish"

Is this going to be 100% stainless steel? What is "the Core"? What is the other metal used if it implies "solid metal" & "with a stainless steel core"?

Why would you plate a stainless steel razor? Just polish it to mirror finish or leave it matte.

 

[p.b]

I think the handle will be SS chromed and the head zamac chrome plated so that they look that same.

 

[Rasatura Bagnata]

Love the design…question the materials.

If that is the case...huston...we have a problem... problem!
They say the thread is built in..so if it is surrounded by zamak we have a problem of galvanic corrosion!

Yes, I am leary of the, IMO, vague description of the types of materials used in the razor's construction.

Totally agree with you

Pretty sure it's the usual sort of vagueness that means it's a zamak head with a steel thread.

Rumour has it Muhle's been doing something similar with their R89 heads, although it might be a brass thread... If they've figured out a way, so might've Fine.
