Feather Artist Club DX Series Stainless Steel Arm Folding Pearl Handle Razor

Decided to opt for one of these over a traditional cut throat razor because I had heard that the Feather Blades for this were much sharper than you could hone yourself. However the review is not about the blades but about this, the blade holder. Firstly this is massively over-priced. The simple mechanism and blade carrier is nice enough but you'd see the same quality and refinement on something costing a tenth of the price. If this had been £50 I would insider it steep. Indeed when I bought this there were many look alike and other Feather blade carriers that were at that price point or cheaper andI wish now I'd bought them. The handle is plastic and nothing really special at all. The screw component is good and overall the handle is well made. It's simply insanely overpriced. Buy a cheaper carrier, at the end of the day it's the blades that do the job not the handle. Talking of which ... Order the blades way in advance of when you need them... They seem to take ages to get old of and ship.

Nach Jahrelanger Rasur mit Folien- und Systemrasierer wollte ich endlich mal ein Rasiermesser ausprobieren. Es braucht ein paar Versuche bis man es raus hat, aber jetzt bin ich sehr zufrieden. Nach den ganzen negativen Bewertungen bei Billig-Produkten, habe ich mich entschlossen ein Rasiermesser zu kaufen, welches ich in ASMR Videos mit Barbieren gesehen habe. Das Messer liegt super in der Hand und lässt sich präzise führen. Der Klingenwechsel geht auch sehr einfach. Der Spender hat eine Arretierung, so dass man die Klinge direkt in den Halter "rüberschieben" kann. Demontage zur Reinigung geht mit einer Hand.

This is my new primary shaving razor, and I absolutely love it. It's by far the closest thing I've ever used to a straight razor without all the time-consuming maintenance. The blade holder has enough heft to it that you can shave properly using just the blade weight, which is great. The only complaint I have about this is that the mechanism for inserting the blades is simply a clamp that you have to drop the blade into, without anything actually holding on to the holes in the blades. That's not a huge issue, but I would feel a little better if it were slightly more secure. Now, if you're looking at this and having any concerns, it's probably about the price vs. a cheaper shavette. To be perfectly honest, the only reason I bought this when I did is because a seller had a couple in stock for like $40 less than the usual price. I bought it about a week after buying the Dovo Shavette , which I wasn't as happy with. In retrospect I'm happy with the choice, and probably would have eventually bought it at full price. Here are the big differences between them that I've noticed: 1. Blade weight. Or blade holder weight, I guess. The Dovo has no heft to it, but this one has enough mass that you can really shave just with the weight of the blade holder. 2. Blade mechanism. The Dovo uses a flimsy plastic insert that you have to pull out and pop open by sticking a fingernail into it every time, while the Feather you can just squeeze the clamp open and let the blade drop out if it's dry, or slide it apart if it's wet. 3. This razor actually has a spacer pin and open scales like a real straight razor. On the Dovo the "scales" are just a metal dish, basically, and the blade will run directly into it if you just casually close it. 4. Overall build quality. This just feels like a much more solid, better constructed product.

Let me start by saying I have a huge problem with this kind of stuff in that I buy way too much! I started with safety razors, tried a shavette, upgraded to the feather SS and now upgraded to this. I was bit hesitant because of the price. I figured it holds the same blades as the SS how much different could it be from the SS? I was wrong. This thing is phenomenal! Definitely worth it to upgrade from the SS. I used to get the closest shave with my standard shavette with double edge feather blades snapped in half (confusing but this is a different animal from the artist club). The downside was there would be irritation and small nicks frequently with the standard shavette. With the Artist club SS I got almost as close but almost no irritation and extremely rare nicks. With the DX I can honostly say I get the absolute closest shave of any of my other shaving tools, with zero irritation. Now, I have been using the artist club SS for almost 2 years so I understood how to use it. I definitely recommend this razor for anyone who has experience with straight razors or safety razors. The materials are very high quality and the shave for me is second to none. I find the feather super blades work best for me. My philosophy is the sharper the blade, the less pressure needed, the less irritation.

Gives a good close shave in just one pass.
