First Shave with the RazoRock Wonderbar Slant

Like others have mentioned: How does it compare to the ATT slants?

Good question.

My guess is that it isn't any better, and that people are just chasing the next new apple razor hoping for something better. I guess there will be some that use both and prove my opinion wrong though YMMV lol.

Just shaved with and used their cheapest $25 boar brush, will write a review in a little bit and take some pics. Got only 3 letters for both products, WOW....

I have the ATT S1, unfortunately I don't have this razor yet to make a comparison. It's a good and legitimate question.

The problem with comparing to the ATT slants is that there are at least two versions which feel significantly different from one another. I have a 2015 S2 which, to me, feels rather aggressive. I also have a 2016 S2 that feels wonderfully smooth. They seem to shave about the same in terms of efficiency.

I shaved with my Wunderbar this evening, unfortunately there was a problem with the blade that I wasn't aware of until after I was finished. It's entirely possible the issue impacted how the Wunderbar shaved, so I don't want to give a review until I've had a few shaves with a new blade.

Keeping the above in mind, I will say that Wunderbar shaved me closer, quicker, than either of my ATT S2's, which have been my main razors over the last 2 months or so. Definitely more efficient on my facial hair. With 2 passes and no touch ups I got BBS on about 60% and DFS on the rest. Normally that would take touch ups and buffing with an S2, or a full third pass. No problems getting under the nose BTW, and I love that the head fully covers the blades side tabs.

Shaving feel was smooth but definitely significantly more aggressive than my mild feeling S2. Maybe a similar agressiveness level as my more aggressive S2, but a different type of feel.....hard to describe. Absolutely more aggressive feeling than the Stealth Slant V3/V4. I found the Stealth Slant fantastically efficient, Mowing through my facial hair easily and leaving my face staying smooth 6-8 hrs longer than when I shave with the ATT slant, or any of my other razors for that matter. The Wunderbar seems equally efficient, but with a more aggressive feel. That said, I got, quite literally, 3-4 times more nicks shaving with the Wunderbar than I have ever had in a single shave with a DE razor.7 or 8, when I normally get one in a known problem spot, and occasionally one somewhere else. Which takes me back to the blade anomaly I mentioned at the beginning. More shaves with a different blade or two will give me a more accurate view.

are you referring to a problem with the way the blade is seated when compared by looking from one side of the top cap to the other side, as in on one end shows more blade sticking out vs the other end? I have never shaved before with a slant but I noticed this on both sides of the cap and I think it should be there as a feature AKA its slanted a bit to chop off hairs easily, or you have different issue. I was impressed with mine and never shaved with slant before, feels just as aggressive as my Fatip Grande but not threatening at all and about 30% more efficient, shaving also went fast and angle finding was immediate on the first stroke. I'll post review tomorrow with some pics, was gonna do it today but not in the mood for it.

No, what you describe is normal with this razor and is not what I was talking about. It would be difficult for me to describe well, particularly at this time of night, I need sleep, lol.

Basically what I had, was a slightly deformed razor blade, nothing to do with the Wunderbar razor itself.

It looks pretty cool. If I didn't own prime rib slants already, I would buy it.
