Pros & Cons
Pros
This is by far the heaviest razor i have owned, and also the only adjustable razor. The color is beautiful, it's heavy and it's adjustable. Feels good in the hand and the ability to adjust the sharpness actually works and is nice.
The butterfly action opens smoothly, no squeaking etc. The blade setting works best if the butterfly is open and set first. Less fumbling with the blade.
There is a learning curve, but it isn't bad. I only ever do that when something is so good i fear years down the road it might not exist.
It clogs a bit more than i would like, even with using shave soap. Skin irritation is gone after having used harry's cartridges for years. I really like shaving this way much better and it is fairy relaxing.
The shave is good, perfect for beginners. The shave (with the flow of the hair - not against it) is great.
Cons
The butterfly is very loose and when closed the blade adjusts uneven. The adjustment dial simply isn't built well. You can't get to 1, it will not go to that level; wherever you stop, you have to open and close the head to tighten it.
Not impressed with this razor. Does not come with blades. For me this is not acceptable. Since this is a razor, i seem to not get a full refund.
Highlights
Quality
Great and sturdy product, do not use it if you have acne.
This is solidly built and adjustable which is a bonus.
Adjusting the angle while the blade is under pressure isn't very effective.
This razor and the blades are top notch
Price
For the $26 usd price, this is a great razor and a good value.
This razor affords the smoothest shave i've had in decades!
I’m used to the cheap $20 razors.
I would pay $100 for a stainless version.
Packaging/appearance
Very high quality razor with some serious weight, packaging was superb.
Add their blades for the whole package.
Competitiveness
This is my third razor and light years ahead of the competition.
They get bonus points for recommending other companies’ blades in the documentation that came with the razor, which they do bec... Read More
This razor can rival those costing four times as much.
I am not saying other products are not better.

If you pay attention to what you are doing this razor is less likely to cut you than a standard plastic cartridge
