Anyone have a link? Or is it still too soon?
PS my first post here! Got tired of the excessive moderation on another shave forum.
Just wait a few months. I'm working on this. Or you can buy this crappy thing that will likely break and then you'll be out both the money and the razor. Ever hear the saying "I'm not rich enough to buy cheap tools"?
Edit: Seconded the Hawk. Great low-priced option.
Yes, I've heard that and agree. However, sometimes I'll buy a Harbor Freight tool that I don't have just to try it out. If I like it and it breaks or wears out I'll replace it with a real/good one.
It's funny that just yesterday the mailman delivered one of Yaqi's older style SE razors, the one that takes ½ a standard DE blade. I didn't like it too much. It gave me a close shave but was harsh on my skin. I'll try a different blade in it tomorrow, but don't really expect a different result.
I do like the Yaqi DOC slant. It's a bit better than my Muhle R41 Twist.
