Seriously, I wanted to buy a no-nonsense beard trimmer, such as the Moser 1530 or the Panasonic ER203K, but they were impossible to find. I ended up with a dildo-shaped yet effective Philips (Norelco in the USA, I believe).

 

Um, yay! Lyrt is posting pics again...of what, no one can be sure. Just kidding.

Result: I'll let you know after I stop feeling how smooth my face is with like no initial irritation. I need to go check a mirror in half an hour for redness. This shave has the potential of being a 4.7/5.0. The Feather ACD-N Razor feels like a DE razor with added stretching needed since there is no razor bar to help with that.

 

Welcome to the club! My Feather ACD-N shaves are some of the most superb 25 or 30 minutes available, in my VERY humble wetshaving experience. Keep a super-Feather light touch, and even my stubborn neck comes out BBS and irritation-free. ::
