This is one of my better razors. It is not too aggressive and I can get an almost BBS shave in two passes. The handle is the part that makes it worth the buy.
My darling wife bought me one of these - with a matching silvertip brush - for an anniversary present.
It is a good piece of work - the finished stone is gorgeous - but I find the handle is too short for my preference, and it does tend to be "slippery when wet."
Having said that, it shaves well (exactly like a Merkur HD, which I fancy provide the working parts for this spruiced-up beauty).
