Oh, OK. Never heard of them before, but the business seems to be only a few years old. I am not sure about hooked/gel/crunchy tips, but scrub, scritch, backbone and flowthrough have been around for at least a decade. I can understand scrub and backbone, but the rest of the terms should be replaced with the Queen's English. IMHO at least.

I’m sorry, but the term “skin food” sounds gimmicky to me.

The word efficient is the most ridiculous term used in all of shavedom. People merely "parroting" what someone once stated ages ago on a forum. Never has a word been so more inappropriately used. Are lawnmowers efficient in how they cut? Scythes?  Rolleyes

What adjective do you prefer, Mr. BP?

I like the term efficient. It indicates to me that aggressiveness of a razor is not always tied to the capability for it to more effectively mow down hair. This represents my experience with some very aggressive razors that did not perform as well as milder razors. YMMV I guess.

Efficient is to aggression as horsepower is to horsesh&$. There is no scientific correlation. The ability to "mow" down hair is based upon the blade hone angle and the level of blade gap/exposure via the razor. The razor is merely a blade holder. Anyone trying to sell you an "efficient" $100+ artisan razor is full of........beans. "Efficiency"  has caught on in usage not unlike "Rich Corinthian leather!!" did ages ago. People still ask for that in new cars when the truth is no such thing ever existed!! Pure marketing BS!!

A razor either shaves facial hair to the length the shaver wishes or it doesn't. Think of it like lowering the platform on your lawnmower to cut to the desired height as in the end that's all it is. 

The emperor has no clothes.
