I like the spike point razors and definitely agree on the precision when using them. But, as an old fat man with ear lobes that seem to grow more every year, I find that I slice them in a heart beat every time I use a spike. Other than that, I think they are fine, but then I think all the straight razor shapes are fine. One thing to watch out for though is your angles and the length of the blade when shaving to make sure you don't angle the spike into the face during any given stroke. Definitely need to pay attention.

Nice razor!!
