Hello everyone, some great news today. I would like to share that the Type 15a an aluminium version of the Type 15 is ready to purchase at www.hone-shaving.com/razors
Its available in either a silver or black anodised finish, and with two handle lengths. The standard is 85mm, but there is now a 100mm option also. There have been some slight tweaks to the geometry of the head to account for the weight difference and to differentiate it slightly, its not to replace the Type 15, but to compliment it. And the price...
£65 for the 85mm + shipping
£68 for the 100mm + shipping
The Type 15 pass around got a lot of great interest and I tried to listen to that feedback and fold it into the 15a so I hope many of you are pleased with the outcome. The feedback from that exersize really did inform the development that went into this version, it wasn't simply a case of changing the material.
Some rather fine gentlemen @Bechet @Darkbulb @riverrun @rowlers @Stacy555 were kind enough to help out with testing some pre-production prototypes so a big thank you to them for their input and time, they really gave amazing input and a much needed confidence boost.
If you have any questions I would be very happy to answer them. I hope you like it and I can't wait to hear your thoughts.
