I was very fortunate to be one of the early Beta Testers of the Lambda Razors Brontes. I will share my review of that version. The pictures above don't do it justice. Yes, I am a Lambda fanboy. That is because it is a fantastic product, both in aesthetics and in functionality. But this Brontes takes the experience to a whole new level. My version of the razor was an efficient and ultra smooth razor. The angle range was large. With a steeper angle, there was some modest blade feel which disappeared with using a shallower angle. The razor glided across the face with unbelievable comfort and unequaled efficiency. The shape of the head is small enough to be very maneuverable, similar to the Vector and the Amakuni, both of which I currently have. I also have the La Faulx Ti Classic. The Brontes shave was better than all. I say that knowing that Theo has made changes to the head geometry. Those changes apparently made the shave even better in a comfort/efficiency manner.
The only qualm a had was the handle. I felt it was too light, thin and short. Theo has made the necessary changes and the weight/balance and feel have improved dramatically.
I can only imagine how good the finished product will be. Theo is a craftsman and magician.

@cigarman thanks for your review. What is the weight of the razor you tested and do you know the weight with the new handle.
And can you also confirm that you haven’t tested the razor post design changes? How have you verified that efficiency has increased without an increase in blade feel?

Changes between prototype and finished product can often be quite different. The Tatara prototype did not shave like the Amakuni. Like the Brontes the geometry and the handle were altered in the final razor.
Agreed. There have been multiple examples of ‘minor’ changes / tweaks to the final product that make it very different to the prototype. Janus springs to mind and I’m sure I’ll think of others during the day.
