The LIX that locks aka the "English Psycho". First shave with this possibly unique British "LOX" . Approached without too much enthusiasm because I find the Joseph Potter "Velvet", which this almost an absolute copy of in terms of baseplate design, just a tad too aggressive.

But I actually had an absolutely superb shave today. It's considerably heavier than the Velvet at 99g, but the head is lighter and all the extra weight is in the handle. Clearly the change in weight distribution smooths this out considerably. If anyone knows anything about this razor, please let me know.
