hello all has anyone tried one of these? what do you think of it? i dont want to spend 50 dollars or more on something i might not like before i get you guys opinions......
 
Never heard about it until your question. Personally, I don't like the idea of having to cut a DE blade on half. I don't see why it wouldn't work, but I'm not gonna try it because I'm a terrible scientist.
 
Haven't tried it. It looks like it might shave similarly to a GEM.

Give it a try and let us know. If you like it maybe you could do a pass-around for it.

From what I understand it's like the razorock eco except the head piviots similar to the cartridge razors...
 
I did some reading on it when it first came out, but decided against buying one for two reasons:
- price (Yeah, I'm frugal)
- the head seems to need pressure before the pivot kicks it. It just seems unnatural to me.

Strange concept. It should shave like a DE, don't believe that blade can be noticeable rigider when locked flat... For me it's a DE, which needs to be rinsed twice as often. And don't think it's a good idea to have a pivoting head on any razor. This is just an opinion, never saw razor until reading this thread. Company I do know for their aluminium shavete, from few years ago, solid and precise, mostly good reviews.
