> 24 hourI love this thing It’s light, the blades last me several weeks, and the cutting surface is sized right for precision if required. Can’t go wrong here.

> 24 hourThis is really an amazing razor ! First of all, it is obviously incredibly sharp and efficient. Assuming you are using the right shaving cream/gel/... , it leaves you with a baby skin, soft and supple. It is extremely light and easy to manipulate; the wooden handle is lighter than the blade part and it feels perfectly balanced. I can now confirm that, in truth, a straight razor is by far superior to anything else you could use. I researched a lot to make my mind on which one to use, this one came at the top and I am not disappointed. Things went well from the first time I shaved, I did not cut myself. But make no mistake, as much as I wasnt particularly worried, once I had this thing in my hand I felt differently. I am not easily impressed but this is one very scary instrument of death for sure. You better be in the moment and pay attention to what you are doing :) The slightest wrong move can quickly end badly. I do not have experience with other razors, but with the shaving cream I was using and this particular razor I felt that there was some margin for error though. Normally you should shave at an angle of 30 degrees from what I understand, but it was fine when I did a bit less or a bit more. I am wearing glasses and I dont see anything without them, so sometimes I wasnt really holding the razor perfectly and I was trying to figure how to handle it best, but things just went fine. As long as you are careful, in the moment and focused, make short strokes and apply minimal pressure with just a finger, youll be fine and the shave will be amazing. Looking forward to become a pro with this thing !

> 24 hourOk so the device has a good balance , however it is not that easy for the beginner to use this , I highly recommend to use a straight edge razor over shevette, this is good for barbers that they need to have multiple blade usage, Be very careful when using this blade holder ....

> 24 hourYears ago, this razor caught my eye, how could it not be made by ( feather)!! But I used to go to the classic razors (despite the tiring of maintaining them) and sometimes the results were bad!!! Finally I decided to get one and indeed the results were beyond expectation, amazing, and I got a clean and smooth shave as it should be. Unfortunately I was late to getting it!!

> 24 hourWell made Feather SS Razor. I cant say that it works any better than the Dovo Shavette I have used for years. It is heavier than the Dovo. I used the Super blades in the Feather and Personna hair shaper blades in the Dovo. I get good shaves with both. The Personna blades can be picked up at any beauty supply. You will need to send for the Feather blades since they are proprietary.

> 24 hourI paid $150 for a “razor” my husband could use for a long time and sharpen on a leather strap. I got a fancy handle. A fancy handle should not cost $150. Even if it’s nice wood and steel. The description said razor. Not razor handle. The thing didn’t even have razors with it! And they’re expensive. If you’re looking to overpay for a handle this is the product for you.

> 24 hourReally get a good shave. Feels good in the hand and looks great too. The spring hold on the blade is strong yet its easy to replace as needed. Theres only one angle I had to avoid so as not to get bit by the square edge of a blade, but that beats other brands where you have a LOT of issues with the square edge. Overall highly recommend.

> 24 hourVery difficult for beginners, and has little flexibility to control. Its toughness and quality are high.
