Nope,are just very fine tools that work well for me.
No differant than my machine tools in my shop,My guns,my knives, My cast iron cookware.

Most guys either say...

1) "WHY?!"
2) "That's bad as hell but I could never do it, I'd be too scared!"

Women say...

1) "Hot" and then "May I feel your face?"

To the men I say...
1) It's actually cheaper
2) You can go days or weeks without shaving and shave without irritation or clogging as a cartridge does.
3) You're not going to cut your throat open! It's not like using a machete! It's a light touch
4) Shaving will be something you actually get excited for instead of something you view as a chore.

To the women I say...
1) I actually used a sharp axe ... Permission granted. Feel away
