Thanks dick great reply mateGreetings
Cobra's are not for everyone; three years ago I was kindly lent one to try by UK Rob, I shaved with it every day for about 7 or 8 days. It was the first model made, I found it to be just too much for me, to be 100% fair it was not the razor that was too much it was those artists club blades they are simply way too sharp and unforgiving for me, I tried three different types that Rob sent me and the ones with the mini guards were the most forgiving but still way too fierce for me.
I must add at this point that the razor gave me the closest shaves that I have ever had with any razor and/or blade ever and the slowest regrowth; but very definitely not the most comfortable by a long way. I did not find it a difficult razor to use and I quite liked the quirky triangular profile handle it is just that my face whilst not properly sore or cut 'glowed' after every shave!
I should add that I regularly use razors with far bigger blade gaps and hugely more blade protrusion but they are used with 'kinder' generally carbon blades which tend to make the razors a lot more face friendly. Don't let what I have said put you off, if your face can tolerate those blades a Cobra can give you the shave of a lifetime!
Regards
Dick.
