Machined stainless steel H&S NO75

My aluminum base plate N075 is easily in my top two, if not my best DE razor. I had previously purchased the polished stainless steel version, but I found it to be slightly more aggressive in face feel when compared to the aluminum.

Aji graciously sent me a machined finished to try out as well. The finish is very good for machine. In fact, I almost had to look very closely to discern it from the polished version.

Anyway, the shave was fantastic. It felt identical to the aluminum based original version. I think the machine finished gives just a little bit of drag on the skin similar to the aluminum or a Weber DLC. This, for me, makes it an absolute winner.
