Description:
|
iKon OSS with a build quality that rivals Feather, these all stainless beauties are more efficient (i.e. less mild) than their Feather Counterparts. With a dual sided head, it is like having two razors in one -an open comb razor and a safety bar razor.

Got mine a few weeks ago, put a personna red in it and shaved this morning. WOW!!! Best shave ever, get the angle right and let gravity do the work. A really nice "singing" sound as it mows down the stubble. A SAS in one pass (with the open comb), BBS in three (2 & 3 with the safety bar). Minimal irritation on my adams apple (my trouble spot and first place to "burn") My only complaint is the handle and head need a little fiddle to screw together, but should smooth out after a few screw/unscrew cycles.

This is my go to razor. I have a Gilette late 1940s SS and a Edwin Jagger 89l. The EJ89 was my favorite before my Ikon. I just like how the Ikon feels and the head design makes it easier for me to get the best of both worlds. I searched far and wide and must have read every review before I pulled the trigger, do it you wont be sorry!

First off, my review is for the Ikon Bamboo, but it has a similar head. I do 2 passes with the open comb...that's usually enough above the jawline for a bbs finish. I do a third pass below the jawline with the closed comb, and also any touchups. I stretch the skin as in straight razor shaving. This baby gets me as clean as a straight razor, with more comfort and less attention to detail. The open side is a little less aggressive than a Tradere and the closed side is less aggressive than an EJ89. With the closed side being mild, yet effective, you can use aggressive techniques without hurting your skin. The dual action head is a brilliant idea.
