While I loved offering our past bakelite razors the color choices were not really there. Heck, in order to do our Oxblood razors I had to source the bakelite supply myself, then ship it to the manufacturer! I mean, I never would have been able to do a Translucent Electric Blue in Bakelite, the manufacturers barely understood what a safety razor was, never mind if I asked them to make it See Thru \u0026amp; Blue! \u003cem\u003eBut I Digress...\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eABS is also super strong and impact resistant. This could make it a perfect travel or camping razor. ABS is also heat tolerant and possesses a high tensile strength. It's shock absorbent, and lastly, scratch resistant. To sum it up, though light, it's pretty damn durable and will last generations, especially with the brass hardware we had to include.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe made sure the brass post was the standard 1032 thread so that it can be mixed and matched with your other favorite handles! Though I recommend you hang with the whole package before you switch it up! Unlike it's metal cousin, The Phantom Blue requires slight pressure, but very, very slight. As for the presumed learning curve, you should have it mastered by the end of a 3 pass shave! A slant need not be about weight, but finesse and angle Grasshopper... \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo sum all this up, The Phantom Blue is a killer retro style, high grade quality, piece of shave tech past, present \u0026amp; future. Trust me, you do yourself a serious disservice if you dismiss this as sheer novelty alone. Those of you who already own El Fantasma know exactly what I mean.
