Great shaving tool. Quality so high, it could probably last a lifetime. Very hefty and well balanced, it does all the work! Only regret is not buying the whole set. The matching brush, bowl and stand can only enhance the experience and are not available separately. Buy the set! Also, get good blades to go with this, plenty of choices available here.

Wonderful, precision shaving instrument! Extremely well built and solid, love the heft. Unusual blade loading/securing mechanism, but I find blades are easy to change and are held securely. Adjustment mechanism works smoothly. The numbers do not have corresponding detents, so the range of adjustment is essentially infinite. I'd suggest starting on one or two, and working your way up to see what works for your skin/beard. Wide open, this thing could be treacherous! My only complaint is the large size of the head, which makes shaving around the nose and mouth a little tricky. Not the easiest razor to use, but practice will pay off with great shaves!

It is a great razor but if your hands have any soap or preshave oil on them then you are looking to get cut. To adjust it you have to hold the head by the sides and and turn the handle other than that it is a nice razor. I might give the vision a shot as it is a butter fly razor and adjusting it is a lot easier.

This was my first DE. With an Astra blade, I find it mild. The handle is not slippery at all with soap free hands. It is very well made, heavy and I enjoy using it. May give too many variables for a beginner, but keep it set around 2 and it is comparable to the HD.
