The Chroming is simply lovely and top-notch. It has good weight, heft, and balance. Overall, the razor looks much more expensive than the price listed.<\/p>\n<p>However, I immediately noticed two things during my first use.<\/p>\n<p>One, although blade alignment was pretty accurate, I did need to give it a bit of a nudge just to make sure. It&#8217;s not wildly out of alignment. It&#8217;s just that, with this razor head, the blade ends protrude a bit. This gives you the opportunity to check things out. A good practice, just to be on the safe side.<\/p>\n<p>And two, the blade exposure was a lot more than I&#8217;ve seen with other razors. This resulted in a shave that was close, but just a tad more harsh than smooth for me. YMMV. This may very well be an agreeably good razor for many wet shavers. It certainly depends on your skin type.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve learned that my skin is a bit on the sensitive side. I prefer a more mild razor. On the upside, I used Italian Barber&#8217;s Fresco Verde Shaving Soap For Sensitive Skin. I think this gave me some added protection when using this razor.<\/p>\n<p>Truthfully, I would not buy this as a starter razor for someone just learning how to wet shave. It&#8217;s a bit like jumping in the deep end. Too much, too soon.<\/p>\n<p>This razor would be, however, a good second razor\/gift for the person who&#8217;s learned the proper technique, etc. with a more mild razor over a period of a year or two.<\/p>\n<p>A much better option for any wet shaver (beginner or seasoned veteran) is <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2iuNlnh\">The Godfather razor by Vikings Blade. \u00a0 <\/a>The blade exposure is perfect! \u00a0The razor is very forgiving which results in a smooth and close shave.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/b\/?node=3063530011&amp;ref_=assoc_tag_ph_1394216334436&amp;_encoding=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;linkCode=pf4&amp;tag=georgetoon-20&amp;linkId=d51ad7d9c84d44b493d7d57d094ac70e\" target=\"_blank\">Shop Amazon Gift Cards.
