I has always been quite happy with the system razors, for that matter shave. Only one thing has always been to me a thorn in the side: The wildly exaggerated prices for spare blades. When planing to get from just 10 in a 100-pack with very good blades, for example Astra. So I went on the search for alternatives and became aware of the planer shaving. In Drugstore I put me to the Wilkinson Classic, trying to shave with what more poorly managed than good. But over time it became more and more and eventually I opted for a high-quality planer and ended up with this product. Taking into to always remain at the correct angle and exert pressure (the weight of the plane just fine), you will be rewarded with a Top shave that can easily keep up with the market-leading Systemies, this even more likely surpasses (with the right blade ! I've made with Feather, Astra, red Personna and Lord Platinum The best experiences Derby blades appear in this planer but rather to be out of place). Shaving also makes with brush and planing much more fun and get a little ritual. Also a great thing is the possibility to adjust the slicer (blade pitch), what I really comes to meet in difficult places such as the neck or upper lip .. I would recommend this product without restrictions.
