Any thoughts on having a holster produced that will accomodate the 100mm variant?
Won't Hone be getting a new case made for the 100mm variant? If not you could contact the chap who makes the standard cases for Hone, he is based in the UK , his details are on the hone site.Any thoughts on having a holster produced that will accomodate the 100mm variant?
You never know, that may be on the cards for the future, I agree it would be a great razor in stainless steel.I like the Hone design, but the original safety razor is very soft for me. I hope this model be more aggressive. I don´t know what colour I prefer.
I think this razor in steel would be perfect.

You make a very good point sir, I'm inclined to stay with heat retention .Provocative mode on
A Hone in 316 stainless steel would weigh 153 grams, almost the same as the brass version, but without the heat retention. Where is the advantage over brass, apart from stainless steel being fashionable?
Now, a Hone 15b in Bakelite would weigh just 26 grams... Much more interesting...

A brass 15b with more bite I feel would probably be better imo.You make a very good point sir, I'm inclined to stay with heat retention .
The way the brass Hone holds the heat of the water is just something else, the face feel you get is fantastic however it will not stack up against the ATT R1/2 , this is why a brass 15b ( b for bite) would be great .316 Stainless Steel is Marine grade. Nothing to do with fashion.
I really like the look of the brass version and the way it will age.
I was tempted to buy one but wasn't sure if it would be too mild. I've just bought a ATT R1 which is perfect for me.
I've noticed a few in the BST section of late which have been very tempting.
Anyone know how the Home compares to the ATT R2?
If you want an ATT comparison the Hone type 15 is very close in performance to the M plate, again imo.316 Stainless Steel is Marine grade. Nothing to do with fashion.

It's a good razor, don't get me wrong. I get perfectly good shaves from it but it Is clearly not suited to everyone. It's the same with the ATT M2, quite a mild razor that gives me perfectly good shaves, again not suited to everyone.Thanks for the feedback. Well that's a shame.
Of the short amount of time of been in the DE world. I think it's up there as one of the most beautiful.
Oh well more money to put towards a new brush....every cloud and all that.
I think a middle of the road Hone would suit most people, say a brass Hone 15 with the stubble mowing power of the ATT R1/2. I would be buying one for sure! With enough feedback I'm sure Andrew from Hone could come up with the goods!Hone R41? Or would that be Hone 41r?
