The makers reputation, breadth of skill, craftsmanship, fit and finish, razor shave quality, balance, usability and value.

Nice pick - congrats to TZ.

I don't know how they shave but they are gorgeous. Truly works of art.

I have three TZ razors and consider them peerless. Even under a magnifying glass they are without flaw.

Masterpieces!

What was it measured against and how did the others fare?
I would be interested to see how Mastro Livi compared.

(Not that any are in the price range I would consider)

I am honoured, and humbled, to be the recipient of this award. There are a lot of great razor makers these days. I'm sure, on a different day, with different judges, the results would also have been different.


Thank you to Badger and Blade for the motivation to go out there and try even harder.

Congrats TZ
