Got mine, looks beautiful, great craft, cut almost all my face, did it it twice, wife said not again:). I guess I am doing something wrong. I was careful, not hasty, used feather blade. Any comments?

Yes. Don't use feathers until you master a particular tool. Try a mixed blade set from Amazon. Also regardless of blade, prep is the most important thing.

as already said below, feather blades are super sharp, on top of that open comb razors are often very "aggressive" meaning they cut well, whether that be through your beard or your face haha! Maybe try less sharp blades such as Derby? Make sure that you drag the razor straight down and you shouldn't need much pressure at all! Also make sure that handle is screwed all the way in because if it isnt you can end up with too much blade showing which can lead to cuts! Good luck, let us know how third time lucky goes!

f.angestYeah, the key is this: if you're used to electric razors you know you have to press hard against your skin to get a close shave. Safety razors like this, one the other hand, take the lighest touch... press too hard and you'll irritate the heck out of your skin. You want to glide it across your hairs, just barely touching your skin.
