    Interesting - I've never gotten along with lightweight safeties, but that case is cool - while the coffin profile seems intuitive for a safety razor I don't recall seeing many shaped that way. I am less than enamored with the snap in half design, just haven't ever seen the point compared to the Schick-style injector

    Looks to me that it takes the Feather or Captain SE blade and not a half DE. But I could be wrong. From the side view the head looks too small or the handle is too fat. JMO.

    Guess I was wrong. It is a Half a DE blade.

    Seems silly to me to have to snap a DE blade in half.

    Charge me 75% more for the machining or less to make a DE.

    Maybe it is easier to make and cover mistakes for only one edge?

    Then you have the Macho thing of maybe I can't bring myself to shave with a straight but I am dumb enough to break a DE in half.
