This razor leaves such a close shave. My skin feels so smooth. It took even the hairs that grow at odd angles that I tend to miss with traditional modern razors. I normally have problems with razor burn and ingrown hairs but since I have started using this razor, I haven't at all! I love the vintage look. It even comes with a cute case with a mirror and a little brush to clean it with. It would make a great gift for Father's day! I purchased this razor at a discounted rate so that I could provide an honest and unbiased review. I love it!
