Third shave with Igor, today using a Gem a Blue Star Carbon Steel blade. A very user friendly razor that is giving a BBS Finnish every time. At first I thought it was a little light but I have got used to it now and it is not an issue. Looking forward to tomorrow's shave :-) P.

I have moved on from shaving with carbon steel blades in Igor to using Gem Stainless blades, I found the Gem SS blade just as good as the carbon blades and they have the added benifit of lasting longer. Igor has given me great shave after great shave and I will be sorry to have to let it go as I was when I had to give the Bunny back. It has to be said, Tom makes very good razors and I am very pleased to have had the chance to used them. A couple more shaves with Igor and it will be time to say goodbye to him, it's been a blast! P.

I have come to the end of my week with Igor and it has been a very pleasurable one, Igor never failed to produce great BBS shaves with little effort . I am sorry to see it go however the next person inline for it did not reply to me and pass on his address in Spain. I have left a message with Major Tom and await his instructions. Have a good day people, BM.

zeri have you received Igor and the Bunny yet? If so have you tried them yet? You have a unique opportunity to test side by side. I am really looking forward to the comparisons. Tom

Hello my friend. I still haven't received them. The bunny will probably get to me on Monday. The Igor I really don't know. As I've explained to the user that sent it to me, we have a problem with postal services from the UK. Usually it takes about 10 to 15 days to receive any package here. When I get them I will surely make a comparison between the two of them.

Well finally (after 14 working days) the I-Gor has arrived. I'll be shaving a couple more times with the Bunny and then start with the I-Gor. Hope I'll be able to make a good comparison of both. I'll have fun Paul. Thank you. 😉

Well, time for the first shave with the Igor. And may I say that twhite is a true crafstman. Excellent machines that he maked. Why don't you make more of those...why? First shave, smoothest setting. And smooth it is. But it was a real close shave. BBS effortlessly. As I shaved I found myself thinking "what a lovelly music this machine plays. And it looks like a piano. And it's so smooth... Just like Diana Krall in her "When i Look in your eyes" album....................
