I got this because I was tired of having the Danny DeVito hair look, and it did not disappoint. The only thing that I was hoping that it would have was instructions on how to wet shave and make that lather.

Great starter kit.

I definitely enjoyed learning how to shave with a straight edge. The overall experience provided by the company was good. But even after a few shaves I could achieve the close shave I desire. Maybe I'm missing something but I have a feeling that the blade was not sharp enough out of the box. Which is fine as an intro this is a good kit and you still get a good shave. Just don't expect baby smooth. Its understandable at least now I know that I like the experience and will sharpen the blade. However, I do now have to go through the effort of sharpening researching buying etc. Overall great but one star off cause of the sharpening.

The kit was as described with the exception that the razor was extremely dull and would not cut hot butter. I was very disappointed in this because it was advertised as being shave ready and could not of been farther from shave ready. The rest of the kit was as described.
