I think you’ll like this razor a lot.
I need more shaves with it, but there wasn’t much stubble today to go at! I keep studying the geometry and how close they were able to put the edge of the top cap to the edge of the blade.
Going to use a sharper blade tomorrow and compare my notes to shave 1 with the Astra.

I knew you weren't going to be able to resist haha.
Looking forward to your thoughts. I'll likely get one also, but I'm going to wait until they release a shorter handle and in a different material.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of aluminum but I really liked the head design.

So am I! I've been wanting to see another razor with flat sides on the top cap like the Blackbird and the RS-10. I'm glad I came across this razor (thank OP!)

wonder how they decided men and women need different gaps? Also missed this until your post. Then I went back to look at the FAQ.

I'm not a fan of anodized aluminum because of the drag. Did like the alloy/finish Ikon used for the X3, whatever that was.
My curiosity about this new razor was greater than my common sense.
I too ordered one for me and one for my spouse. I will report back on the Canada to US shipping time, since some have people reported long waits and others have said there are no delays. I look forward to giving my shaving feedback on this new razor and from my spouse (leg shavers perspective).
By the way, the shipping was free since the order total was $80 US (approx. $106 Canadian). Henson must use $100 Canadian as the threshold for free shipping.
