Colour:Gold Why Use Jagen David Double-Edge Razor? Affordability: Replacement blades are more affordable than current multi-blade razors and the thinking is that their two sides extend each unit's lifespan. Better Access: In many cases, the blade's slimmer design enables improved access and removal of hair in tough-to-reach areas like under the nose and neck crevices. Closeness: Many feel these blades provide a closer and smoother shave than multi-blade counterparts. Of course, there are some drawbacks to such a razor. Chief amongst these concerns is the increased likelihood for cutting oneself, as well as the additional time it takes many non-experts to shave as they adjust to the dual-edged learning curve. Instructions For Usage No Pressure: These razors are not designed to be bullied into the beard or skin. In fact, doing such will undoubtedly lead to bleeding or irritation. Instead, double edges should gently glide across the face, and even with light pressure, will adeptly remove stubborn stubble. Change The Angle: Double edge razors should move across the beard area at an angle of approximately 30 degrees. Shaving should commence slowly and carefully with short, light strokes in the direction of hair growth. Since hair grows in different directions on every man, make sure to take note of your specific hair direction prior to shaving. That said, obviously no slicing or side-to-side motion. Stretch The Skin: More so than with multi-blade cartridges, double edge razors do their best work on skin that is held taut. So, when taking passes on the cheeks or neck, use that free hand to stretch these areas.

I'll NEVER go back to disposables
This is fabulous. I bought as I'd wanted to stop using disposable razors due to the cost on the environment. I was sceptical tbh and worried I'd cut myself. I'm a total convert, it's easy to use, hold and manoeuvre around the contour of my body. Legs, underarms and bikini and not one knick or cut. Also it's pretty too. I'll never use a disposable again and everybody should have one of these.

Always fighting the handle
I chose this after reading lots of good reviews - and if you have a rounder face, or just tidying a beard, I'm sure it's fine. It works reasonably well when you-re going down your cheeks, though it does drag because of the weight. Unfortunately, it's horrible for cornering your jaw line. The handle has no grip as soon as it's at all wet and the end of the handle is so heavy it makes the razor very unbalanced. This means the razor always want's to hang down, not angle to your face. It's a razor - not a hammer. You shouldn't have to hold onto it like one, but the weight and lack of grip make a feathery touch slippery and unforgiving. I'll be searching for something else.

Weighty and smooth to use.
I found this just perfect, and a very pleasant surprise at ease of use. Wish I had moved to do it years ago. Like many others, fed up of spending fortunes on harmful plastic, but put off due to horror stories. My partner when it arrived said 'please don't bleed out in bath' haha but only one tiny knick on bony part. And I wasn't obsessively careful. Feels good and weighty in hand. Easy to get blades in. Easy to clean. Lovely colour and price. What not to love. Seriously, do it and you'll be laughing too. #myethicalchallenge

Wouldn’t have believed the quality “Fantastic “
Having used this product I can’t find any negatives. The price and the product you can’t compare. I would never have guessed the price if I hadn’t bought it myself. I did have a particularly more expensive one that I lost traveling. This by far does the job well if not the same as a £170 that I lost.Will update the review in a month or two but I don’t think I will need to add anything.

Nothing special
For the price i paid this razor is nothing special, it looks good but thats where it ends.Its very heavy and to get a close shave i found it hard work.I brought another razor a third of the price of this one and could not be happier as it gives a really good shave with less irritation and is much more comfortable to use.This is really overpriced.

Beautiful and effective razor
Beautiful razor, would make an excellent present for a loved one.Easy to open to change blades and the handle is a little longer which is perfect for shaving areas other than the face that needs a little more reach.My only complaint is it could be a little more weighty but other than this it's a lovely piece for shaving.

Good quality & good price
This is a very nicely made, good quality razor handle for the price. Some people have mentioned that it is slippery when wet as it has no grip section. This is quite inaccurate. There is a grip section near the top of the handle, but regardless of where you hold it, there has been no problem with slipping for me. Just keep hold of it, it won't wriggle.If anyone is thinking of buying this razor handle and might be slightly put off by some reviews, I would honestly say just get it. For the price, you can't go wrong.

Has cleared up shaving rash
Two weeks in and no cuts yet. The shave is close and shaving rash below the jaw line has cleared up.Probably an issue of all safety razors, but I echo the reviews that noted the housing for the razor makes shaving under the nose a little awkward - but not impossible.If you've never used a safety razor, this was my first attempt and very simple. I would recommend getting a good shaving soap - this does not work as well with a normal shaving foam - I have no idea why. The same is true the other way, tried using my Mach 3 with a shaving soap - doesn't work.
