I was intrigued by this and also like the handle. I have one on order.

Mine arrived this morning.  I definitely like the look of it and while I like both heavy and light weight razors, as a rule I tend to prefer lighter ones and this fills the bill on that score.  It feels nicely balanced in the hand so next will come that first shave with it.

jshaves2554 sent me his to try and then pass around the forum. once the pass around is done, the razor will be sold and the money will go to the DFS Movember page.

anyways, I used it for the first time last night after my head shave to line up my sideburns and trim around my ears. this razor is pretty damn mild for me, probably too mild for my usual face shaves.. I'll put that theory to the test tonight or tomorrow!

The handle almost looks like it could be reversible.
Confused2 Now there's an idea. Put the centre of gravity off-centre, so you can play with the balance. 
Better yet, thread the inside of the entire length of the handle, and have a slug inside that you can adjust the position of with an allen key.

Look what I found on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1141864414/...hare_v4_lx

Thanks, it does not appear when I search and when I visit your link I can see the listing but get this message:
"Sorry, this item doesn’t deliver to United Kingdom."

I have contacted the seller as it looks very interesting.
Same here. I get "Sorry, this item doesn’t deliver to Canada."

used this for my shave last night...definitely too mild for me. my blackland era sb 5 plate simply gives me a better shave and it's not too much more expensive than this razor.

I definitely like the look and feel of the razor and the handle, the shave is too just mild for my tastes.

if anyone wants to try this, shoot me a message and I'll send it to you.

I understand where you're coming from, Andrew, but I really like mine.  That's probably because with my skin and beard type I don't need, nor want, an overly aggressive razor.  I definitely agree with you that it ticks the 'mild' box as opposed to the 'aggressive' one.

it reminds me of my henson razor, in terms of shave aggression level.
