Notice the cheap looking tooling marks in the steel in the next 2 pictures?

So the bottom line for me on this adjustable is that I am highly underwhelmed.... now it isn't BAD per se, and it is just like the original, however it looks and feels incredibly cheap, is not as easy to use, has a vastly inferior grip, and shaves inferior to the less expensive fixed head model. I do not recommend the adjustable, and find it to be more of a "gimmick" than anything else.

The Fixed Head Injector looks much better too. I guess our group buy is going to be for the Fixed Head Injector and blades.

Agreed again. Although, I wish they hadn't put that silly blue line around it.

Ditto that. It's like they went out of their way to compromise the potential coolness.

The first thing I think of when I see that thin blue line is a Mach/Fusion wannabe. Argh.

Joel, thanks for the immediate info. You're great with keeping us all in the loop. Please let us know how they shave!
