Absolutely love it ! The colour is great,the finish second to none. Really like the packaging and the overall presentation is excellent. Good price and value with swift delivery. Now to the shaving experience, my first time shaving with an aluminium razor,but it instantly felt just right, no concerns about the lighter weight. Initially used the medium plate and was extremely pleased with the result
Just had my 4th shave and have progressed the "aggressive " plate,with no issues. However,it won't give me an extra day,so might revert back to the medium
Either way,both plates resulted in an extremely comfortable shave !
Forgot to mention that i particularly like the knurling and designs of the handle.

Best razor I have ever used, so well made and so easy to use, it feels lightweight compared to my old razor but once you get used to the weight it is a non issue. Absolutely no regrets

Henson Mild AL13 V2 - Double Edge Safety Razor - Steel Blue

Have been buying from Shaving Time for some years (even going back to when Dave MacMillan owned the business) and have always found them very helpful and willing to do their best for you. Jay is carrying on in that same tradition - thank you, Jay!
Items always come well packed and in good time.

Best brand for my sensitive skin. No soreness and has improved redness. First brand that leaves my skin feeling better after shaving.

Abbate Y La Shaving Soap Buttero Saffron and Wheat Germ

My new favourite brand. Every soap has a subtle difference in scent and results but the common factor is skin feeling fantastic.

Abbate Y La Mantia Fufluns Herbaceous Shaving Soap Fresh Milk Saffron and Milk

Great brush for hard soaps. Easy to break in and good service and price.

Razorock Mamba 53 Double Edge safety razor in stainless steel and titanium

It's a very well made razor very mild but lovely to use the big downside is that after i bought it a couple of days later i saw it for sale at the english shaving shop for £25 less

Easy to order, goods delivered in good packaging. Thank you.

Used with my Parker Aero, sharp but very efficient. Took my time as I hadn't used this brand before, no nicks or irritation, really good. Again, another brand I would purchase again.

Astra Superior Platinum Double Edge Razor Blades 5 blade pack

First time use with this brand, I found the blade sharp but great with my Rockwell 6C using plates 4, 3 & 2. Would purchase again.

Hans Baier Safety Razor Blades – Pack of 10

Great scent, great value, well worth it.

Stirling Soap Co Shaving Soap Gatlinburg 170ml

Fantastic service, again!

Another great soap from Stirling. Plenty of lather using very little product. Great soap and great value for money. Thanks again Shaving Time.
