All the razors sold by this company feel like top quality that will last for years, And the company could Not possibly offer better service & commitment to making sure their customers are 100% pleased! How could you Possibly go wrong?For Years I shaved with a straight razor until I got to lazy to sharpen it every time I used it. I never really liked the shave I got from cartridge razors nor the price. After receiving a 3 Piece Safety Razor for Christmas that gave a shave very close to my straight edge without the hassle & for a fraction of the cost for blades, I was thrilled to be introduced to Safety Razors (something my Dad & Grandpa had used)! Alas the razor I had been given while giving a nice shave wasn't made very well, so when it needed to be replaced due to the screw wearing out (soft metal).I thought I'd give a Butterfly razor a shot for even more convenience...After reading the high reviews I was at first underwhelmed by the shave I got from this razor & emailed the seller about it, asking what was wrong, & explaining my shaving history. Chuck (the Owner/Partner) was so eager to make sure I was 100% pleased he shipped me a new 3 piece razor before I had a chance to order & try different blades off Amazon (Something others had recommended trying, but I had never needed to do)!After trying both the Butterfly (with different blades --Feathers for those interested in a more aggressive blade) & the 3 piece, here is what I experienced...The Butterfly seems very tame with the stock blades (probably the best bet for those starting out), & with a more aggressive blade cut as good as either 3 piece I have owned with the added convenience of changing blades without dismantling it, & is Very comfortable to use!The 3 piece does give me a Very close & Comfortable shave with the blades that come with it. With the Feather blades, I do get a somewhat closer shave, but also have nicked myself (for the first time in Years), & am somewhat prone to razor burn,It Really is about tailoring the blade to the shaver/razor, & I honestly can't figure out what Razor/Blade combo I will like best once I use them a bit more. I have a Very light beard & still found I needed more aggressive blades (possibly because of years of using a straight razor ?), so Don't think that a light beard Always calls for a less aggressive blade or visa-versa... Order a sample pack off Amazon & find what works best for you!

***MARCH 2020: STILL FIVE STARS! Over 2 years of use and still going strong. My husband came across his former very expensive electric shaver sitting in a drawer the other day (we’re re-doing the bathroom) and since he has never used it again since he got his Big Foot - decided to give away the electric shaver. The re-fills are extremely economical and very safe to dispose of using the inexpensive disposal containers. His shaves are quick, super smooth, and produce no irritation. I will try to remember to come back and post links to the blades and shaving gel he also uses.***Great product. My husband loves it. High quality Double Edge Stainless Steel Razor at a good price. Have had it several mos now & still looks brand new & shiny. Cleans easily with a quick rinse. Blade changes are easy. Handle has non-slip grip. Stainless Steel means no rust & long life expectancy.Good old fashioned safety blade razor gives a better shave, more shaves, & for a better price than modern multi-blade razors.Part of why this is easier to shave with & stays sharper is because there is no struggling to clean all the "gook" stuck between all those blades on a multi-bladed razor. That gook makes it hard to complete a shave (& get a nice clean, close shave) & also contributes to the blade cartridge needing to be replaced sooner if it's not 100% clean & dry after every shave (which they never are!). The Bigfoot cleans up super easy with just a quick rinse under water or if need be open it up to really rinse it out thoroughly.The razor comes with a starter pack of high quality blades. You will instantly recognize the higher quality & sharpness of each of these "single" double edged blades when you compare them to each of the razor edges in a "multi" - bladed razor cartridge. Refill blades are available from many brands. We found Double Edge Swedish SS Blades, 2 X 100 pack for $9.50; here on Amazon. (Remember to look for Double Edge blades - not Single Edge Blades! Those are the kind the Olde Fashioned Barber uses lol.)This is a single blade - but it has a double edge; simply flip it to use the other side before needing to rinse. There can be a very slight learning curve for some people when switching to this type razor. We alleviated this (for me, hubby was fine) by switching to a Clear type of Shaving Gel (also bought on Amazon) which makes it easier to see what & where you're shaving & haven't had another nick since!
