Surprised that open comb wasn't efficient. It looks pretty aggressive.

None of them ever are to me. Tried Yaqi, Razorock and franken models. This one bends the blade a ton. I don't get the adjustable aspect as it feels like it would move and not be stationary when turned some to adjust. Pretty razor just not for me.

That is interesting on the DOC. They do look aggressive.

Hmmm copper...does it smell like pennies?

I have the Grand Shave King that the DOC is modeled after. And I will say that it is the least aggressive razor I have ever tried. Just how it is designed I guess. But put a feather blade in it and you can get a decent shave...but don't expect a super close one.

Great shave today Dave! And thanks for using LNHC for Artisan week!

Thanks Don ! It's a pleasure anytime I use @LNHC Soaps. Nice to know about the Grand Shave King. I knew these were modeled from it but always wondered if it was as mild as it's copies that are made. COOL looking razors but I never get a close enough shave with any of the copies that I've tried.

Hairy back and head separated again with a successful neck shave. Not for the weak at heart, sorry for the fuzzy picture

Spoiler: Ewwww
