Some critise the looks especially the handle. However, I have used it a lot and find that the Notch in the handle really allows you to hold it securely especially when working ATG. Also delivers first class Shaves without any hassle.
It was the handle that initially put me off this razor and it took Mike to convince me of the positives. It is so comfortable to shave with.
