So pick one up and try it. Your experience may be different. Ih
I hear there is a fan base that loves them... Just don't buy the home depot blades (they are not sharp enough). You can get SE blade at Walgreens. Good luck and report back if you get one!
Sorry, i justread that youlive in Oz. i don't know. If they have Walgreens?
