Occam's razor

I really like the shave I'm getting, and hope to make it my daily driver, but I have to do something about the handle.

I have a water softener due to hard well water, and it makes everything extra slick, including the handle of this razor. I tried the best I could to dry my hands and the razor between rinses, but inevitably, it would get wet and I had a hard time keeping a grip on it.

In fact, I had two slips that I don't know how I didn't slice my face off.

But that's a problem for ME and my situation, not really a knock on the razor. Just for me, some knurling would be helpful. I'm looking at other solutions because I am enjoying the shave using the moderate head and pro guard blades.

I'm not one to rotate razors, and have been hoping since Kickstarter that this my be 'the one'.

JustinHEM,

Try making your fingers damp and rubbing them on your alum block.

That should take care of the slipperiness on both the handle and your skin.

Just to circle back and say thank you! The alum trick works fantastic! Loving this razor.
