This is my first slant razor and I’ll admit I was a bit sceptical, as I thought slant razors might be gimmicky. After just one shave I was sold! This razor has a nice heft to it, sits well in the hand, and the shave is both very smooth and efficient. I’d rate the aggression as the low end of medium - not dissimilar to my Merkur 38C. The knurling is excellent and there’s no way it is slipping from even the wettest hands. On top of that the razor is very modestly priced which makes this the best bang-for-buck razor in my collection. In short, I really enjoy it and unreservedly recommend it.
