    Well, if you have only 3 razors you know all of them really well.

    Danny, I did take pics of mine last night and the milling marks are there, but look less pronounced to the eye than they do in the pics:

    feb99.jpg I paid $43 Cdn shipped in December...$88 Cdn in February...still not a horrible price for a quality SS shaver with decent fit and finish.

    What do they say? Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?

    Yes, that feeling that there is a tight coating on my face. Even after rinsing it off. Good test of irritation, obviously, but Alum just will never be a part of my ritual.

    It only takes 1 slight change to avoid patent infringement. Kinda doesnt makes sense to patent stuff these days with China being the world's best at copying everything. I actually like the handle on the left better . The knurling is softer.

    I suspected that, but you can never be sure on the Internet ;)

    It felt like a cheap facelift to me. No it didn't wash off for me either. I'm on the fence about using it often.

    Alum is a part of my daily routine. I got in the habit of shaving before my shower so it gets completely washed away. I use it mostly as a teaching tool. If it lights my face up I know I need to modify my technique with that particular razor.

    Interesting review of the Occam's, Dave. The razor 'killed your curiosity'? Perhaps, temporarily...
    My 1508.5 focus is perhaps a few shaves ahead of yours, as I have recently smushed the product back in the middle.

    The shave felt great but maybe it was due to my first shave with that razor that it lit me up.
