I don’t know what it’s called in English, but it’s amazing. I shave with this everywhere except downstairs. I need apply NO pressure whatsoever thanks to its own weight and thanks to the sharpness of these Japanese blades. I love it. :3 ⚔️🎌

Edit: you obviously don’t have to present your equipment on your hands like a psychopath. 🤣

    Makes sense. How do you know when it’s time to change it?

    I’m getting one of these for a senior with dementia, figuring they will be least likely to hurt themselves with this. I will probably need to manage changing the blade and can’t rely on them noticing when it needs it or remembering to tell me.

      I don’t have any pictures from my own, as I have not thought to take any, but over time depending on model the blade will develop either a green patch, or an arrow that’s the same icon as the eject button. It basically slowly fades in, so how soon you want to swap it is also to user discretion I suppose, but these images show it at peak visibility

      It’ll also start to knick, but if you’re not the one using it that one is less noticeable I suppose :3
