The Bunny has a lot of blade Exposure & a Small blade Gap if you Look..A lot of the stuff on the Internet is Wrong..The Blade Exposure is far more Important than Blade Gap..You have it the Wrong way Around & this One gets perpetuated in Forums..I often use aggression and efficiency interchangeably, although I also think of aggression as tendency to bite whereas efficiency is just about amount of hair removal.
Actually there are lots of good diagrams out there on the Internet which quantify aggression in terms of blade exposure and blade gap...
Some of the best razors I know have a big blade gap but small blade exposure, and the Bunny with the WILD comb feels just like this.
Interesting. I tried to get a (Japanese) twin blade into my Bunny, but failed. I didn't try very hard though as I was pressed for time and I put another Chick blade in instead. That blade has a few more outings and I'll try again then. Looking at my thumbnails I might have to wait until they grow back a bitBut loading the twin blade proved very problematic although Macoronus didn't report any issues.
Even with a twist of the key, the retaining lip of the head didn't lift far enough to allow the twin blade to slide under, and I had to insert a thumbnail between the lip and the old blade to make a sufficient gap.
Perhaps the adjustments made before I received the razor have caused this but, like all the other teething troubles, it's very easily remedied.
This makes sense, since the Bunny has a small range of effective angles, something that I associate with small blade gap.
The construction of the Bunny means that it could be used as an "ivette" with no comb at all - I got good results with a Schick E with the guard removed (but blade stops still in place) although it was a rough shave.
You can learn a lot about razor geometry that way...
... and without a video, it didn't happen...So I must ask. Are you going to give a no comb shave a go? As the blade stop is built in it is possible. I do not have the nerve to try it.

Well..Tom..Their is Nerve & just Bein Daft for the sake of it..Me neither..So I must ask. Are you going to give a no comb shave a go? As the blade stop is built in it is possible. I do not have the nerve to try it.

Keeech Stirrer..But I agree..... and without a video, it didn't happen...

Lather Catcher Bunny!So only 12 hours on from the last shave I've been prompted (or maybe incited?)to try the Bunny as an ivette by using it without a comb and here much against my better judgement is a brief video do demonstrate:
The Bunny suits this very well since it's not bitey at all and it's easy to use a steep angle because without a comb the range of effective angles opens up massively.
And the gap where the comb was turns the Bunny into an INJECTOR LATHER CATCHER!
Of course, as with devettes and sevettes, this is a very close shave indeed requiring no pressure, no pressure and no pressure.
It's not very smooth, works best with skin stretching and makes the Bunny very loud indeed!
Although the WILD comb gives a much smoother and more comfortable shave of comparable efficiency, the combless ivette Bunny is guaranteed to leave the skin completely calm and irritation free.
Don't fear this and give it a try at least once - you may be amazed!
