Rolling Razor
« on: July 01, 2009, 12:07:01 PM »
Rolling Razor
This razor was brought up a couple days ago in a different thread.

http://www.rollingrazor.com

Has anyone else used it?
Has various "rated blades".
The blades DO NOT pivot (seems contrary).

Anyone esle try it yet?
I am thinking of it, but would sure like some more reports first,
since it seems only available online, we can't even hold one to look at in a store.

As always,
Eric

Yeah, I'm with Tom with this one but let us know how it goes! I question the design of the Headblade but this thing really makes me wonder!!

Give it a try and be sure to let us know!!
It's all about attitude!

This piece o' s was covered in some postings a while back, if you search I'm sure you could find the thread.
Basically, it was considered a gimmick and the person who tried it found it was a waste of money. Send it back, get your refund.
 
Better yet, give the HB some time and follow the instructions, you'll save money there.

I think it is a ripoff - but good luck.

I have used it and I like it, it is a little different looking but it works good, I get a pretty close shave with it. It is about the same price as others out there, just wish you could buy it in the retail stores. Online shopping is a little girlish.

Return it and get proficient with the headblade.

I guess I'm going to go against the grain. (pardon the pun)

It took me about 2 weeks to master it but I love the close shave I get from this razor. I like the medium sensitivity blades the best and I use it almost exclusively.

I find it's fixed blades to be very similar to a straight edge blade. Because it doesn't float it actually gets closer than a floating blade. I tried the head blade but I found the floating blade to just get the stubble down to where the Rolling Razor could finish off the job.

Give it some time and decide for yourself.
