Bought one last night. Used it this morning. So far I really like it. Took a bit of hit and miss to get the angle right. I even watched a few youtube videos on DE shaving LOL But once I got it down it went smooth. No major nicks or cuts. That witch hazel burned though! LOL I'll use it thru the weekend and report back Monday.

Sounds good so far, I will wait for Harry's take on it. I will probably pick one up soon, as I am through with 4,5 and 6 blade cartridges. It's total nonsense, made to make you spend more money, or should I say make you believe you need to spend more money for a great shave. Total BS!

Pro tip for getting the right angle:
Position the razor so the top of it could lay flat on your shaving surface then slightly tip it to an angle and take a short stroke with it and if you hear the blade cutting the hair you should be good to go. Conversely if it's just removing shaving cream and not cutting hair you might need more of an angle.
Note: hair often grows in different directions so you might have to adjust your angle as you go.- The MT One is deceptively light, but standard DE rules apply, don't add pressure.
It your razor is getting stuck, don't try to power through. Just move your razor back a bit and make short passes to clear the area; sometimes you may need to approach from the opposite direction to get that smooth shave. - Don't forget to relather before each pass.
If your lather is drying up or breaking down, add a little water to your brush then whip up the lather again by rapidly going side to side then clockwise and counter clockwise motions in your shave bowl/mug. Adding more soap/cream isn't needed.

I pick up the micro touch razor first time I shave with it brought back old memories when I was sixteen and shave with my Dad's safety razor..I have to get use to it all over again. Cut my self a a bit on the neck. Second shave went a lot better.It will be awhile before I try to shave my head want to get good with it first I will let you know how for I progress.I hope to be shaving my head with it soon all the good reviews I read how smooth it gets the head. I'm using the Head Blade right now.

My apologies to all for the late review, but I have used it twice since buying it last week. My take:
It cuts through pretty well....In most cases I only needed one pass WTG and one pass ATG to get to my usual smooth level. (I do agree with the Pawn Stars guy (forget his name) that it works well on the head as well as the face).
It shapes the under part of my beard real well and it's very easy to clean.
The only downsides is that I couldn't quite get it to work behind the ears and I had to make a double pass on the back of the head, but in fairness, that's where my hair is the strongest anyway. I also had a hard time storing it in the stand, but it may have been me.
Overall: 8.5 out of 10
Disclaimer: I used the Wilkinson Sword and Voshkod blades instead of the blades that came with it so could that have made a difference, perhaps?

Trick for getting behind the ears:
Start below and behind the ear follow the curve of the ear up to the tip of the ear then position the razor to go back the other way following the curve of the ear. then starting behind/below the ear shave up to the top of your head.
To get those hairs that like to grow at the top of the ear in between the sideburns and the ear, when you get to the tip of the ear bring the razor forward to about a 90 degree angle only going as far down as you want to go.

Sir Harry I concur with just about everything you said including issues with around my ears and having to multipass the back of my head lol Other than that this razor has made me a definite DE shaving convert! Gonna try some Wilkinson Sword blades in it next week...

I have been emailing them back and forth.
I am not exaggerating here in what I say below...
I have never come across a company so disinterested in assisting someone to get their product, it's bizarre!

Thinking of ordering these, but I have a question. I like the cartridge razors because I shave about once every 3-4 days. Will this microtouch one safety razor be able to cut through the stubble of 3 days with ease like my schick Quattro 5? Thanks guys

A DE razor will cut through but you may need a couple of passes to accomplish a nice smooth shave.
