Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Lily Z. ★★★★★

The balance on this razor is perfect for delicate detail work around the ears. It arrived shave-ready and glides through thick stubble without any pulling.

Scarlett X. ★★★★★

The Japanese-style grind on this razor makes it incredibly easy to maintain a sharp edge, and the smooth finish glides through even thick stubble without irritation. I've used it daily for a week now, and it's a huge step up from my old folding razor.

Benjamin X. ★★★★★

The razor has a perfect weight and balance in hand, and the Japanese-style blade gives an incredibly smooth, close shave without any tugging. I was surprised by how comfortably it handled the tight spots around my jawline on the very first try.
