Blackland Blackbird
The Blackland Blackbird safety razor, crafted in the USA, is a modern, double-edge razor with a design paying homage to the SR-71 “Blackbird” aircraft. Made from either stainless steel or titanium, the Blackbird features exceptional construction quality and is machined to tight tolerances. The razor comes in a variety of finishes, including a unique machined finish that displays the marks of its CNC machining process, telling the story of its craftsmanship. The Blackbird is known for providing incredibly close shaves due to its distinctive head geometry, which combines a small blade gap with high blade exposure.
The Blackbird’s long handle and aggressive nature require experienced hands for best results, especially when navigating through a coarse beard. Aesthetically, the Blackbird stands out with its gorgeous design and PVD coating, though minor imperfections were noted. Its polished stainless steel variant is remarkably reflective, demonstrating fine craftsmanship. The titanium version’s light weight offers a smooth shave, balancing efficiency with comfort. With different variations like the Blackbird Lite and the Blackbird Titanium, Blackland caters to those seeking a milder blade exposure for a gentler experience. Despite some initial cosmetic imperfections, the razor’s long handle, effective grip design, and solid feel suggest a high-quality product for those who appreciate superior performance coupled with striking aesthetics.
