    So I decided not to wait for a longer handle and used it as is this morning. I have to admit it was a bit awkward initially trying to figure out how to grip the tiny handle but once I figured that out, it felt quite natural. Felt like I had a lot of control. Here's my set up:

    Pre-Shave - Shave Secret
    Soap - Van Der Hagen (the white puck)
    Ice cube rub down
    After-shave - Shea Natural Tea Tree Tonic
    Balm - Pacific "something" Daily Moisturizer

    The shave went surprisingly smooth and easy! Had no trouble maneuvering the razor around. I did my standard 2 pass with minor touch ups. That was at 530a. Still BBS as of this posting LOL

    I think I'll keep her [​IMG]

    Very cool! The small handle has been something I've wondered about. Seems like it could be a pain, but I guess not!

    The small handle makes even the shortest guy feel bigger.
