Marvelous smooth shaver, more mild than aggressive in feel but quite efficient.While having s touch of Wolfman in the guard design, the geometry is pure Paradigm 17-4 with less exposure.

Beautiful model - seems like it upholds the fine French tradition for making mild shavers. Thanks for sharing!

Mild might not be the right descriptor, it has plenty of gap and with what looks like neutral exposure I'm sure you could hurt yourself getting sloppy. But the larger guardspan means less blade in your face than the Paradigm or ATT H1.
 
Man, if that is zamak it sure is a poor casting and looks like lemon juice would dissolve it!!! :eek: Nice design however.
