Blackbird Razor
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Nothing comes close to the Blackbird in my opinion. It’s THE razor when it comes to ultra smoothness and efficiency.
- Also be sure to check out Bad Sisters and Blackbird.
- After about 10 shaves with the Blackbird, I think that this is one of the few razors that totally lives up to the hype. It's making me consider selling most of my DEs.
- Recommend the Oliworks titanium(comes with 3 plates), Timeless .68 OC or .95 OC with crown handle. Blackbird and blackbird lite Ti. They are all different but great shavers.
- A lighter SS such as a Game changer or Lupo or blackbird or Apex Plus would work but titanium may be something to consider if you want lighter depending on budget.
Cons
- Better than the Tatara and the Blackbird for me.
- For comparison, my stainless Blackbird is 97g (both with a blade loaded).
- I use the 95oc when I need something a little more forgiving than my Blackbird.

The Blackbird is a strong performer, great if you shave every few days and want a closer result.
The 'bird requires a light touch but it's a damn smooth razor.
Better than the Tatara and the Blackbird for me.
Hope you enjoy the Blackbird for many years. It’s an excellent razor.
The Blackbird is my all time favorite DE razor. ... Both razors provide the same smooth faced result.
