Soap: Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber
Razor: Blackland SS Blackbird on custom Olive Wood handle
Blade: FlyDear (3)
ASL: Whiskey Woods

A superb shave.

The Ghost Town Barber soap was nice. Its scent was there but faint. It went well with the Whiskey Woods ASL.
It was nice to return to my "grail razor."


Happy shaves guys.

I have to say, having used the Big Three from Blackland (Blackbird, Vector, and Saber), the Saber Level 2 might just emerge as my favorite.

I’m getting 10/10 comfort in my shaves whilst achieving very nearly BBS results. The only negative, and not much of one, is the maneuverability. It’s not as nimble, certainly, as the Vector. A bit of care, though, and I am nick-free.

Had this been my first purchase, I would likely be a one-razor man.

Well, I broke down and bought a Ti Blackbird very recently and am very pleased so far. Not enough shaves to be sure, but it seems to be one of the best razors I’ve ever used. Seems to be almost as smooth as my Focus but slightly more efficient.
That said, I’m still contemplating an Osprey. Will this RAD ever end?

I’ve been reading on the Blackland site the comparison of various settings of the Osprey as compared to other Blackland razors. Anyone have an Osprey and another Blackland razor. I have a Blackbird and am wondering if the comparison holds up for other users.
