Karve Shaving Co. ([ Ссылка ]) is a Canadian razor manufacturer specializing in solid brass, bead blasted safety razors. Karve Shaving Co. utilizes interchangeable baseplates to offer a similar adjustable experience to that provided by the popular Rockwell 6S/6C razor system. The Christopher Bradley Razor is offered with seven base plate options a la carte. In this review, I will compare the Rockwell 6C which is my most used DE and most often used on my melon.

The Christopher Bradley Razor is built very well. The fit and finish of this razor is similar to many premium priced razors. This is impressive considering this razor retails for less than anything in the premium space. There are no visible tool marks or unfinished areas. This has a nicer fit and finish than the Rockwell 6C. The tolerance of this razor is premium level as well. The base plate and cap design create a great pairing that hold the blade centered and securely for no misalignment potential. Tolerance is better than the Rockwell 6C.

This razor shaves beautifully. At first I was most impressed by the C plate which comes in at a .85mm blade gap. Once I learned the razor’s angle and found the sweet spot though, the D plate took over as my most used. The .98mm gap of the D plate really took down my whiskers with ease. The rest of the plates measure out as follows: AA - 0.47 mm, A - 0.60 mm, B - 0.73 mm, C - 0.85 mm, D - 0.98 mm, E - 1.10 mm & F - 1.23 mm. The Christopher Bradley comes with one of three handle options (95g x 83mm long / 110g x 98mm long / 120g x 108mm) The one I am reviewing is 108mm variation. The razor has a fairly narrow sweet spot and the angle of attack is a bit shallower than most razors utilize. When mastered though, this razor just goes into “cruise control” mode. This is similar to my experience with the Rockwell 6C.

Considering price and performance, this razor pretty astounding. If you were able to find the one or two plates best suited for you, this razor is a very nice investment into a premium feeling and performing razor at a fraction of the premium razor cost. This razor compares very favorably with the value of the Rockwell 6C and competes directly with the Rockwell 6S which comes in at the same price tag.
