Skarp has had disbelievers from the get go. I bet they had enough complaints from people that they investigated and found it lacking.

I don't care enough to do anything about it, but some people got really riled up about it and kept warning about it being a scam on reddit.

It sounds like a tempest in a teapot to me. Do people really have nothing better to do with their time? Those who think it is a scam shouldn't invest in the laser razor. Those who do invest know, or should know, it is a calculated risk like any other investment. Hopefully they did the math. Next...

that's why I didn't throw up any money. plus, I want to see them use the razor on their face, not on their arm.

^Yes. Beard hair is a lot tougher than arm hair. And as far as I could tell, that thing was strrrugggling to even cut an arm hair!

indeed it was and beard hair, for the most part, is packed together a lot closer than arm hair. I sent the creators a message when their project was on kickstarter asking them if they'd like to do a pass around on a wet shaving forum with their new razor...being a razor and all...never heard from anyone, though.
