I bet SSL is a reminder of warm weather up there in Canada. What do you think of the Tatara blades? Anything unique about them?

[–] MaplePoplar 4 points 11 months ago

It’s been a very mild winter so far for most of Canada, thankfully. The summer vibes will be crucial when we are hitting -40c.

The Tatara blades are working well for me but I have only tried them in the Overlander which is a wonderfully forgiving razor. The Overlander even makes those feather blades useable.
