I noticed my leaf has some blade slanting after tightening. Is this normal? The middle blade seems to be the only one that collects hair underneath.
Yea, I may just have to do that. The tiny middle magnet also immediately came out. Not a huge deal, but also not too inspiring of the quality.I would contact leaf Razor & show them your photo.
It does not look right IMO.
Glad to hear it.It looks like they're sending me a new one, so that's nice.
I can always take out a blade or two to make it less aggressive if it keeps doing that.My thinking is, if you're nicking a mole, it's the wrong kind of razor for you. Then again, I wouldn't go near a design like that in any event, mole or not. Glad they sent you another though, at least they did the right thing.
I don't know a thing about that company's razors other than seeing them discussed here. Just curious, have you used something like an old ball end Tech or one of the mild modern razors?I can always take out a blade or two to make it less aggressive if it keeps doing that.
Never used a tech. I have a bunch of vintage Gilletttes that I don't really use anymore. I have a 6c and it's great, but this is super fast. I use it on my head. Less time I have to spend in the morning. Works really good against the grain and that's not easy for me.I don't know a thing about that company's razors other than seeing them discussed here.

Yea, if it's not in the tabs right, it looks very off. I made sure they were in right. This first one just seemed to have too much play in it and when tightened, it seemed to contort it. I've tried to hold them straight while tightening, but it didn't help much.I have a Leaf, but have never looked at it that closely. The magnets are supposed to hold the blades in position, but it is still up to the user to make sure the blades are fully forward. It is possible to misalign the blades.
As I recall, and will verify, you must push each blade forward before tightening it up
