2 fold Atelier Durdan La Faulx question.

[Chickencutlets]

1) Do you guys know if the Titanium version is a smoother shaver? In my searches most just go standard version. It’s a hefty price tag going titanium and polished version.

2) does the razor ever go on sale around the holiday season?

I have the premium polish bronze Classic base plate model. It is a thing of beauty and shaves even better than it looks, if that is possible. @Mr. Shavington has copper and stainless steel models. I don’t know about the titanium offering.

I can’t justify the price tag but I can’t stop thinking about this beautiful piece. I wish I got in on the pass around to try it out.

It’s just a little hard as the website doesn’t show the polished version concisely etc.

It is difficult to get the fine finish to show up on an iPhone photo. I'm a bit fussy and for me, it appears to be flawless.

I had some razors I purchased but wasn't using.... All of them good. I sold them to help fund the La Faulx..... There is no doubt it's a Very expensive razor.

1. I thought the US pass around featured a titanium razor? We just had the satin steel to try in the Euro one.

2. He just had a sale last month for basic polished and medieval finishes, not sure if there will be more sales.

Try Instagram for more pictures?

In case anyone wants a La Faulx in steel, satin finish, classic plate, the French retailer Rasage Classique stocks them. No waiting list that way. The website is only in French, and the razor price is €300 now (I got mine from this retailer before the price increases and it was €205 then). They do ship internationally and they’re a good retailer.

The pass-around here on B&B was the stainless version, and it was so good it hooked me on SE's and I ordered a La Faulx right away. Just make sure you order everything....I was not aware that the razor came without a handle. My French is extremely rusty. All other razors I ever bought came with a handle.....just fyi

 

[Chickencutlets]

If the stainless is that good, perhaps titanium isn’t necessary. It’s a really expensive razor head in Ti.

Man, these razors really do look amazing.

Is this the only thread discussing the La Faulx? It interests me. Not so much the GEM version.

There is this one: La Faulx by Atelier Durdan Pass Around….. - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/la-faulx-by-atelier-durdan-pass-around.635919/

Anyone with deep pockets willing to shell out for the titanium head? Can this masterpiece shave even better if made lightweight and nimble? Inquiring minds want to know.

My La Faulx shipped today. So excited. I ended up getting machined finish SS with the classic plate. Hope it’s efficient enough.

Exact same spec as mine. I guess they made them back-to-back and that's why they got completed and shipped so quickly.

Most likely the case. Nice selection btw.
