It took me a couple shaves to get the hang of it and now I really like the big smile. Herr Razors claims the scales are carbon fiber but I think it is just plastic glued to a G10 liner. Still the scales look pretty cool.
Yes, it looks like it would take some getting used to. I usually don’t like the newer style razors, but that thing is definitely cool.
I wanted to buy a Saito S1 but the prices for a pristine model are crazy, I picked this up for 1/2 the price. The steel is good and no complaints about the grinding, I am very happy with the razor. The smile makes it a breeze to shave my neck and under my nose.

Shaved with my new T-400 shaving brush! It was produced by a cheeky English bloke named Steve Tinter @Vlasta! I’m very much enjoying the weight of the solid handle! Well done mate! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thank you sir! I’m looking forward to ordering more ferrules and stocking them with boar, horse, and synthetic knots! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Did you make that horn brush, or did you pick it up from a vendor? Does it stand on end ok? It looks really nice! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
