I saw where someone says it's a bit aggressive. No doubt this is a beautiful razor. I'd like to see what the guys say that are using the Ikon daily.

gary i have shaved with mine for 3 days in a row

its aggressive and you can feel it shaving but its smooth considering

i more aggressive than the ej razors and i not possitive yet. but i think
it shaves as good as the futur

each of shaves 3 shaves have been bbs with no touchups needs
my upper lip feels like i have no beard there

and my shaves are lasting 10 to 12 hours before i even start to feel stubble

hope that helps

Hello, this particular razor was a customer request to plate in 18kt gold and once it was completed they disappeared :!:


It is slightly different in that the head portion is milled from brass with the handle being stainless steel.

Something I was not all to keen on doing as what I feel is part of the beauty of the iKon line is the all stainless steel factor with no plating needed :)

Brass was used to hold the plating better as the head is more of the working part of the razor.


I'll admit it does look rather nice in gold though...

One cannot have too many gold razors. Well, Tony might have topped out but I am still subject to temptation.
