Yaqi Romulus, with Feather pro super.
I’d been finding this razor a little too mild/inefficient with the first couple blades I’d used with it, but the Feather pro super gives it some much appreciated extra oomph.

Tedolph 

The shaver is good for what it is and was designed for. As an "emergency solution" or travel or outdoor razor.
I wouldn't want to use it for daily shaving.

The first shave was OK.

The second shave, in a hurry, I pressed too hard, as you can't feel it very well because of the rattling. Hence razor burn.

It is also not very efficient, as the blade gap quickly becomes clogged due to the design. Reminds me of a system razor.

As I said, I wouldn't want to use it every day, but when traveling or outdoors, why not, but without stress. Then you can also feel it well and adjust the pressure
