I have a 1912 old type open comb & I think it's great. A 2 pass shave is easily enough for my daily.
The way this thing slices through my stubble is incredible. I get DFS after the WTG pass!
I have one and can use it, but don't maybe I never gave it enough time but I find other razors to be more intuitive to use and leave a lot more skin on my face--which I think is good.
