MANSCAPEDThe Plow® 2.0 Premium Single Blade Double-Edged Safety Face Razor for Men

As usual, Manscaped delivers.There’s really not much to say other than it’s a very well built razor. Feels very sturdy, and it’s very easy to replace the razor. It even comes with 3 razors for you to use!I haven’t had any nicks yet either, so it seems like it’s definitely doing its job.

I have been using the disposable razors for years because I always had issues with the single blade razors cutting me in a few places, nothing major, just annoying little cuts here and there. So I thought with the good reviews I would give this one a try, and I’m really surprised how well this performs, this is now my go to razor, I still have to be cautious, but I have only cut myself once on my neck, little bleeder. But maybe it was too aggressive of a blade, but I have plenty of blades to try. I am satisfied with this razor.

About three weeks ago I dropped my second Art of shaving (AoS) safety razor handle while staying at a family members causing it to break at the screw piece. So I reluctantly looked for a replacement (still wish I could repurchase my AoS handle a third time regardless).I normally paired the AoS handle with a Van Der Hagen stainless steel blade and that was good enough for me, the Gillette blades that handle came with gave me really bad razor burn.Now, as for the Plow 2.0. The head is practically the same, though AoS had a little more edge to edge coverage on each side from what I recall (might be because I used a different blade on the AoS handle that might've been slightly wider), the handle was a tad bit shorter and slightly thicker on the AoS razor.The Plow 2.0 has a long thin textured matte black finish brass handle that took a little getting used to at first though had a decent grip, it has a zinc head also with a matte black finish. The handle actually had a decent bit of heft to it, I normally would've paired the Van Der Hagen blade with this handle but I decided try out Astra superior platinum blades as I already figured the included Manscaped blades would probably be garbage and I was curious about trying a different blade than my usual. The head was easy to clean out with the reservoir openings even with the length of stubble I was shaving off.I had about 2 ½ to 3 weeks worth of long stubble on my neck and upper cheek since my last shave (about 3 to 4mm), I applied Nivea sensitive shave gel around my neck, wet the razor and went from the top of my Adams apple and went down across my jawline, anything left under my jawline is what I clean up, generally this is where I shave up against the grain since I like a very clean, baby smooth neck.The Plow 2.0 paired with the Astra blade cleaned it all up nicely on the first pass and left me surprised when checking my neck for areas with little raised hairs ..I actually had none to need a second pass. I finished shaving my neck and upper cheek in less than 10 minutes including wetting my neck and applying the shave gel. I had no nick/cuts, nor do I feel any ounce of razor burn or micro stubble.Now I wonder how my AoS handle would've been like with the Astra blades because after this pairing I think I got a good moneys worth for an excellent shave. I paid $50 altogether for the Plow 2.0 and a box of 100 Astra blades

Good quality but the hair guides could be better.

Wry close shave. Definitely will purchase again

Single blade razors are much superior than 3-blade ones from other big brands. I strongly recommend switching to this. It doesn’t cut as deep so you may have to shave slightly more often. I used to shave once a week and now it’s twice. But this is a benefit because it never makes you bleed. Get this if you care abt your skin and comfort

This is an extremely well-built quality razor. The weight is tangible and has a feel that it means business. This isn't just cheap extruded aluminum; it's steel, I believe.To me this is not just a tool, it is an accessory that actually looks like it belongs in your bathroom and visible on the countertop (if you have room for it!) The bronzy color exudes class and when I say this is a "tangible" device I mean it. It has mass. These old-school type razors take some getting used to as you'll have to test your technique not only for a quality shave, but also so you don't start slicing skin like some cold cut in a deli!You definitely want to wet your skin with warm water and used a good cream/soap. Be patient; the shave to me is far different than the 9-blade behemoths with integrated circuitry you can buy.Also, invest a little bit of money on high quality blades like Astra Superior Platinum. There IS a difference in the smoothness of the shave between the OEM blade that came w the razor and a high-quality blade. Trust me. Changing the blade takes a modicum of care as you're dealing with something razor-sharp, pun intended, and a very small bit of common sense to figure out how everything goes together. It's a no-brainer, so to speak.If you want an accessory that actually looks good, is retro, and it actually cool to use, this is the one.

This safety razor is by far the best one I’ve used so far. I can’t believe how good it is. Can get close under my nose. High quality materials. Was going to eventually get a 200 dollar feather razor as I kept getting disappointed by all the razors I’ve tried. And I’ve tried a lot of them. Parker. Merkur. Viking. Vintage Gillette. So many. Lots of good ones but always something lacking. This one seems to be the one. Don’t need to buy the 200 dollar feather. But I think I’m going to buy a couple more of these before the company figures out that they could charge at least double for it and it would still be a good deal. If you don’t like it I’ll be shocked.
