After years of reading people extol it's virtues, I finally gave in and bought one for $10 bucks shipped from eBay. See, I'd been reading about it for so long, saw it in plenty of videos and SOTD posts. But I couldn't get past that "it is a MILD razor" that everyone mentions in all posts about. Ive got a dense, coarse beard and "mild" is offputting.
But, after getting a free Razorock Tech and being blown away by it I pulled out my old Gillette tech and had great shaves with that for a month. So that made me rethink my thoughts about the word "mild" as its applied to razors and I figured "hey. Might as well try this thing everyone talks about."
It came in today, I put a 5th shave Feather in it to tackle 48 hours growth. WOW. 3 passes, with no-lather touchups. No blood. No nicks. No alum burn. Gave me an effortless BBS. I liked it so much I ordered two more before I put on my aftershave balm because I would easily pay $30 for one of these (I've paid $30 for razors that werent worth it to me).
Anyone out there had a bad experience with this thing?
