Pearl Flexi Adjustable. A Gibbs/Rex clone Brass razor...

At nearly $70 (US dollars) per conversion without shipping or credit card fees why bother. It’s a copy and I’d rather support the original Artisan who interpreted the classic or search for the original Gibbs (that’s what I did). Personally I’m not interested in these countries (or current small manufacturers) copying and stealing other’s designs in razors or anything.

Great explanation of the problem here.  It's a design defect, which means it will be a problem for many of them.

Awesome first shave with the Pearl Flexi Adjustable. There were no alignment issues, and the shave at level #4 was smooth and efficient -- BBS in two passes with a little touch up. IMHO this is a first class adjustable razor. It’s a keeper!

This one is a hard NO for me. Too much of a copy.

If you compare it to the Rex a definite step up to the "original". If shaves like I'dike the rex would have shaved.
If you compare to palmera or gibbs i cannot say.

Picked up this Flexi off of the b/s/t a couple of days ago from a good friend & fine Gentleman on this forum, thanks Shavemd for the quick ship.

So, I had my first shave with it yesterday and as I've read across multiple forum threads including here, for the most part the Flexi is a smooth shaver as well as the gentleman that I purchased it from confirmed that as well. And that it is. Excellent blade alignment (fresh Gillette Platinum) with proper blade gap increase throughout its adjustability range. Started on 5 and it was a very, very smooth yet quite efficient shave completed in 3 passes, not a single touch up or buffing required. Nice.

I echo the sentiments here from many, though heavy it exhibits a nice balance & feel in hand. No comparisons with the Rex or anything else as I just want to get a few more shaves in before making an assessment with differences or similarities.

So far though, call me impressed....

I'm sure I'll pick one up eventually. It's on my wish list. I might wait until the final version of the Heritage Adjustable releases so I can do a comparison between all 3 of them.

2 days growth and just another real good shave. Started on 6 and by the 3rd pass I was down to 2.5ish and finito. A real close and comfortable shave that was BBS everywhere. I’m surprised at how well the Flexi shaves and more importantly with very efficient results. No touch ups or buffing required. I’m liking this razor……

Stirling G&T is the perfect pre-dinner shave on a hot summer day! Add menthol and is the titspajamas!

Nothing but, an awesome 2 pass shave. Very light stubble this morning, just enough to get the Flexi ready. Started it on 3 with an ATG pass and finished it on 2 just running it around to pick up any stragglers left behind from the first pass. Smooth as a newborn baby's buttocks. I’m very pleasantly surprised at its performance so far. Excellent job by Pearl….
