So, I bought this razor because it was so dam cheap and it came with 10 derby blades (which I don't care for personally) and a nice stainless steel handle. The handle is the razorock HD handle which is an incredible grippy handle. Anyways, I shaved with it for the first time today and had an incredible and very efficient and smooth shave. The mentor head is the same exact head as the maggards v3a. razorock says they give this razor an 8 out of 10 in terms of aggressiveness. Had zero problems getting rid of a week's worth of hair on the face.
