Butterfly for me fixes a problem that doesn't exist and creates new opportunity for jamming and misalignment of parts.

I suspect the original Gillette butterfly TTO design at least in part came in response to the success of ASR's one piece Micromatic, a simpler and more rugged design which preceded Gillette's by 4 years, as well as the less elegant Segal TTO released 2 years prior to Gillette's first patent application.I agree with what has been said above, when I first started DE shaving I was intrigued by TTO adjustables like the Slim. As time went on I grew tired of these and preferred non adjustable TTO like the red tip. Now, my adjustables have been sold and I rarely use the non adjustable TTO razors, instead much preferring non TTO, two and three piece razors. I suspect quite a few shavers follow a similar path. For me, TTO is a needless over complex and slightly vulgar gimmick. On a practical note I find the TTO generally thicker profile head less manoeuvreable, especially under the nose. I see a day, quite soon when I do not own a single TTO razor. [emoji106]

Great choice -I own the Barley Chatsworth to which I've fitted a Yaqi Flipside Dual Comb razor head since I like the choice of having a milder open comb side for shaving the more sensitive areas of my faceThinking of an E.J. Chatsworth.
