Not yet on the button. I have a lot of razors in that efficiency zone.You know, it depends!
I got my last 2.0 with that closeout sale that Italian Barber had which made it a no brainer. It was ridiculously cheap for what it is. But at full price I would probably just stay on the 1.1 considering what you paid for it too.
But.. you know I have to try them all which means I personally would probably break down. That's just me though, not trying to enable!
They are different: The finish, handles (long vs. short & fat), balance and a slightly different shave.
I know you've been asking for quite a bit which means you're at the point of almost pushing the button!
Your call though!

So based on these measurements, the clamp width of the 1.1 is only 15mm vs the 2.0 at 18mm.
Yep. Looks like a significant difference. Maybe that explains the increased perception of aggression (though I don’t know about the differential in blade angle between them)…a bit of chatter?
Good eyeballing on your part last night!
1.1 (a tiny bit), 2.0 (zero!)
I used mine with a Ti Crown handle, as you no doubt recall. That made it quite pleasant to use. But there was the added cost of the handle.

Made another pilgrimage to Barbercompany.pl, this time because my son wanted to see it. Truth be known I was more than happy to visit the shrine. Couldn’t leave without picking up a few crucially necessary items. Spent some time talking to the owner and when he realized I was a fanatic he threw in a bottle of Agiva (Turkey) and some vintage blades for fun.
Took a few more pictures for the curious.

I would get myself into trouble there.

The GC2.II is like a bulldozer. It’s heavy machinery and you don’t want to get in its way. Yet to the right music, it will dance. Scoured me clean. BBS+

1st night on vacation in Florence, Italy. Our Airbnb is a 17th century apartment near the Ponte Vechio. The Fatip and Saponificio Varesino were singing with joy in their home country (or maybe it was me who was singing). The Fatip is addictively comfortable. Florence is bathed in beauty. DFS+

Paid a little visit to Santa Maria Novella, the pharmacy established in 1221 which created Acqua Della Regina perfume for Catherine de Medici. They still sell it and it smells very similar to Eau de Cologne.
They sell a line of 4 men’s fragrances but just one shave soap which is a Tabacco Vanilla scent.
I was tempted but the Tobacco was little strong for my taste. It’s all about the LOTH, and she didn’t care for it much either. Beautiful place with a fantastic history.
