I see you’re giving the Fili and the Böker a rest. Can’t go wrong with a Koraat. The Sparschweinchen is one of the best deals going. All of the Koraat blade quality and none of the custom razor price. I’m surprised I don’t see more of these in SOTDs.
That’s a really good point. There are quite a few flying around on the sub, and indeed, they should get more use, given how good they are. I wonder whether it’s one of those price anchoring situations, where it acts as “the cheap one” that justifies quickly getting a fancier one and relegating the Schweinchen to the drawer? I know I’ve been tempted to do that 😅
I reach for the two custom-made ones more than the one I did not specify.
Do you see much/any difference in shaving quality or feeling between the piggy and the 14-2 version?
I’m thinking about getting in the next year or so a Koraat, and I’m wondering about whether it’s worth spending more for the 14-2. The thing is that I find the scales of the Spaarschweinchen rather ugly (at least on photos), and I’m afraid I might be superficial enough to let that interfere with my enjoyment.
Sparschweinchen++;

That makes sense. Of the three I have [I know. I’m out of control] I reach for the two custom-made ones more than the one I did not specify.
