    I picked up the last of the three razors shown above, the Winning in Ti- I already have the Merica in SS and the 921-M in a variety of finishes but I really prefer the Ti version with the standard long handle. My comments on efficiency and daily shavers: 1. Merica: a near perfect razor, just a touch milder than the 921-M 2. The 921-M: this to me, is THE perfect razor, the long long handle is what tips the scale- flexible to another level. Perfect! No other word 3. The Winning: this is Aggressive! No other word; I’m on my guard when I shave with this razor, no question about it being a daily beater.

I would say from "mild to aggressive" - none are really aggressive but they are efficient: the Winning is mildest, then the Merica, then the 921-M. The Winning I have zero weepers or nicks from and you can shave quickly...it reminds me of a high end Henson if that helps any. Can't go wrong with any of them though! Good luck :)

    I don’t understand the pricing of your custom razor options on your site. to have the exact same razor just engraved cost significantly more not just the $25 extra as stated. all pricing is in AUD stainless razor engraved- $320 stainless razor- $164 titanium razor engraved- $460 titanium razor- $296 for those prices it would cost the same to aftermarket engrave a titanium razor for the same price to have YPM engrave a stainless steel razor. I bring this to your attention because I don’t think this has been calibrated correctly

      @@makuIa This is kind of where they lost me as a customer. You used to be able to buy individual components and the baseplates were engraved with their particular level (M, H and EH) and they were like $35 or so for a machined SS baseplate. Now you have to pay a $10 upcharge just for them to engrave the type of baseplate it is Ironically, if you choose to NOT have the Yates engraving on the top cap you have to pay extra. Now the cheapest baseplate you can buy is $55 but that won't have the name engraved on the baseplate, so unless you did what I did like ordering a EH hybrid plate in machined SS and a H in brass in open comb, there's no way of telling what each plate actually is. Worse off if/when you decide to sell or buy one as people could mistakenly or intentionally sell incorrect plates and no way to properly identify them. Just seems like a problem created just to get an additional $10 out of customers. I have to make the mental note when I use these plates and with an ever increasing amount of razors and plates I own, I'm guessing someday I'll also forget what these plates are and not be able to identify them. Strange as I don't know of any other company that charges extra for plate engraving the level of the plate. If all of my brass, copper or stainless steel Karve plates (in both closed comb and open comb) were unlabeled it would be a complete disaster.
