![]() I don’t think Timeless has a bad razor in their line up and the Aluminum creation definitely has its place in the Timeless collection. ![]() 38 SB variant which is not a bad razor either. To me not as smooth as the Timeless SS razor and not close to the Ti which is the best of the bunch for my tastes but, I think it shaved me better than the Bronze. This is a quality razor that shaves exceptionally well. It was quite revealing and equally very satisfyina on the shaving end of it. I was surprised at the minimal effort that was needed to get good cutting action from the Timeless Aluminum. Yes, there was a slight bit of pressure on my end but, nothing more than say I’d have used with a Gillette Twinjector or even my PAA Ascension Aluminum razor.

I already have their Stainless, Titanium & Brass versions so, I decided to complete the family tree of razors. They’ve always treated me well with my previous purchases from them with excellent customer service and shipping times. Purchased this razor on a whim and just to give Timeless Razors an extra add on sale as I was on their site about 3 weeks ago to purchase their new Crown Ti handle. And I am surprised to find that I like the open comb the best. ![]() This has given me a number of mix a match options that I have really enjoyed. After looking at the Timeless scratch & dent offerings, I decided to order a full titanium razor with a. Then to play with the weight a little more I thought about ordering a titanium plate to mix a match. I realized the knurling on the barber pole gave me a better purchase than the dimple handle, and I was just griping the dimple handle too tight. The barber pole handle actually weighs a little more than the original dimple handle, but no cramping with the barber pole.
