What a beautiful piece of shaving kit! My Tradere has just arrived - VAT free I'm delighted to report - and with all that has been said about aggressiveness and being sold on, I just had to look at the shaving geometry. Yeowww! What were they thinking? A great big 90 deg corner where the blade will protrude - there's no protection. So I had to fit a blade and it is so - a length of well exposed blade, nowt between you and it except getting the angle right. Looks like a choice between pulling the whiskers off through the open comb or slicing them off with the razor on its back and the open comb for decoration. Anywhere between looks decidedly dangerous!
This is going to make the R41 look like it was designed for pussycats and boy beginners!
Mum! Mum! Is it morning yet? Dad!
My Stahly head also arrived today. More than a tad manky but it looks like it will be good for the days of recovery after a Tradere learning shave. It's enjoying an ultrasonic jacuzzi with a Gillette New at the moment - they seem to be getting along famously.
