Leaf Shave | Leaf Razor, All-Metal Safety Shaver with Pivoting Head & Adjustable Blade Loading, Includes 10 Stainless Steel Single-Edge Blades, Compatible with Standard Safety Razor Blades - Chrome

First off to qualify this review I willMention that I have purchased most if not all razors on the market since I was old enough to shave. Straight razor, single blade, 5 blade, 6 blade, 3 blade rotating head, pivot head, etc etc etc.I shave pretty often and I have sensitive skin. It doesn’t matter how sharp a razor is for me if I go against the grain on my neck it ends up looking like a land mind of red irritation. I have even tried going to a professional multiple times and still doesn’t work for me.What I have I been in search of is always a very small fractional difference. Every time I picked up the latest and greatest tech it always fell short. It could come from performance, waste, price or any avenue really.When I saw an ad for this razor it peaked my interest because what they advertised seemed to make sense to me. I was interested with the fact that this uses the best of both worlds. Straight blade function with multiple blade tech and the mounting system also seemed very advanced to me.What I got: first off I waited a while to write this review. I wanted to make sure I gave this razor a real test. I feel after 12-15 shaves I can confidently say that this razor is FAR superior to anything I have ever tried. After the very first shave I almost ran straight here to write a review, but it wouldn’t be fair to you all reading this. So I waited. Every time I shaved I got more excited about the experience. What I didn’t expect is 2 fold. First the weight of this razor is legit. I feel it was something that was missing in the industry. Along with my pressure to my skin this razor just feels like you are shaving with a Porsche. It is so smooth, accurate, and clean. I’m so surprised at passing this over my skin as it doesn’t even feel like I’m shaving. It’s crazy. I always need to double check to see if I got my facial hair because this thing runs that smooth. Second the blade mounting system and blades are again far superior. I HATE HATE HATE my hair getting stuck between blades. It drives me crazy. Anytime that happened in the past the razor went directly to shaving my undercarriage because at that point that’s about where it belonged. This razor doesn’t have that problem. I just twist the bolt loosen the blades and run hot water between them. Genius genius genius. I’m in love. Great job guys and of the question still loomes is this worth the price? If they charged me double I would still buy this.Thank you for making a far superior razor. I am a fun for life.

Got one for my father (soon 87) who sometimes has a mild tremor in his hands (not Parkinson, fortunately) after hearing the reviews and online noise, and knowing that, unlike me, he never could get into DE razors - and even with all of his conditions, it has been great for him: good shaves, no nicks, cuts or irritation whatsoever. He seems to be happy with it and spends less time shaving his face.So that alone speaks of itself and I thought it would be great for me too. I lost half of my hair at 21 and have been shaving my head ever since with cheap or no name DE razors or a "safety" shavette. I just got it and tried it shaving head+beard, and here are my first impressions:First things first, its build and engineering qualities are just outstanding. That alone makes it deserve five stars.I felt it weird at first because this is the first time I used a "multi-razor cartridge"-type razor after 8 years of using DE razors or a shavette. The area that goes in contact with your skin is considerably big so it's difficult to tell where are the razors exactly cutting, but that is expected in this type of razors.Unlike DE razors, I really appreciate that its handle is not cilyndrical or some symmetric orthogon that makes it difficult to tell where the blade side is when you're shaving the back of your head - so only it will be difficult for it to rotate when you're holding in your hands but you are able to reposition it without looking. At least in this mate version the grip is great and doesn't slip.The multiple blades make it for an perfect* shave, and it indeed reduces the shaving time compared to DE razors - no need to do multiple passes to get a clean shave on a certain area. Also it reduces irritation greatly - I also had no cuts, nicks nor irritation - as my father, I don't even use shaving specific shampoos, oils or whatever.I had "long" hair (say, 5 mm) when shaving - and surprisingly hair didn't get clogged as much as I imagined - though as you can suppose my hair has never been thick, so I can't tell how it would be for people with thick beard.Now, it wasn't a 100% perfect shave, but it was very close. Not much because of the peculiarities of the razor but more because my skull has some bumps and irregularities at the back side, so it's almost impossible for any razor to do a perfect shave back there.Still, at one moment at the crown area the upper part of the head (the area that covers the upper blade) slipped over the skin and I almost got a cut, something that has happened to me with any razor - the blade accidentally slips horizontally and cuts you. Fortunately it didn't happened this time - maybe a bad technique from my part but still I feel like that area can be somewhat too slippy.Naturally it's not the ideal solution when shaving over tight areas (around your ears, your upper lip) when you need to tell where the blade is cutting. Still I got the closest and nicest shave for the upper lip I've ever had.Its other "caveat" for me, just to be nitpicky, is that as the contact area is so big (and its head pivots by itself) it's difficult to "sense" how to apply somewhat pressure to the blades against the skin when shaving. I get this can be just an "only me" thing whereas it can be a great feature for other people who prefer to rely on the razor itself to do its job - and indeed it does a great job.
