Leaf Shave | Leaf Thorn Razor Set, Includes Twig Razor, Matching Stand, 50-Pack Single-Edge Blade Refills, and Blade Bank - Black

I will start by saying that I have used a couple different safety razors so far since switching over from a cartridge razor about two years ago. I used the King C. Gillette first, and that was good, but the handle was slippery and the corners of the head weren’t the most comfortable on your face. Next I ordered the Rockwell 6S and the head is more comfortable and is adjustable, but the matte finish made it feel like it kind of “suction cupped” to my face and caused more irritation than with the Gillette. Maybe it pulled more skin into the blade or something. When I bought it I just went off the reviews by everyone saying it was the best you could get for the money and that it was really smooth, but I beg to differ. I feel like it pulled more than the Gillette did with the same blades (Gillette Wilkinson Sword) and caused irritation in one spot under my chin. Fast forward a year and a half of shaving with the Rockwell and now I’m trying this Leaf Twig. BAR NONE, BEST SHAVE I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. It is so easy too, even with the more cartridge razor style angle. Much easier to get a baby butt smooth shave with this than my Rockwells or the Gillette. I have zero pulling, zero irritation, and was able to shave twice as fast on the very first shave with this as I could with my regular safety razors. All with the exact same blades. It cleans out super easy too. All in all, this is the best money I have ever spent on a razor. I will be selling the other ones and might even buy another Twig to use when I’m at work. Great work Leaf.

I honestly understand the hype now. This product is extremely easy to use, it’s angled perfectly to decrease cuts, and it’s perfectly weighted so you wouldn’t need to apply much pressure. It comes with a stand, which is great for aesthetics, and a razor disposal bin, which is important to have in order to protect against potential injury. It also comes with a lot of razors that are pretty decent too. Overall, I can’t be happier with this purchase.

I made the switch from a classic multi blade razor to this and love it. I was using the Dollar Shave Club razors for a while now but my handle wasn't holding blade anymore and they changed the design. The new blades clog too easily for someone who doesn't shave everyday. I decided it was time to look into safety razors after seeing an advertisement and after doing some research I landed on this. There are several guys recommending other razors over this but most commonly for their adjustability. I figured, once I get comfortable with a shaving angle, I'm not likely to change. Note: I'm not bald so I only have my chin to worry about. What got me on this razor was that it seemed to be the perfect blend of features from small and compact design with an ability to get into tight areas requiring high precision, good blade support for fewer cuts, easy blade changes, and enough good reviews that I felt like I wasn't taking my life in my hands since I'm new to safety razors. This thing has delivered and then some. One area I was overly concerned with was whether to go with the Twin or the Thorn. I was able to find someone who reviewed them both and gave some solid advice. I ended up getting the Thorn due to my tendency to go a few days w/o a shave. It's great. It's not bitey at all... It provides a DFS every time. The blade support is very solid and the handle is just the right size. I never feel like I am gonna cut myself (I got a few minor knicks out of the gate but once you adjust, it's smooth sailing). The accompanying products are really nice. I've been using the soap and oil combo. I've tried the soap alone but prefer using both... It's just smoother. The after shave is nice but it has a very distinct smell - more pungent and earthy than I expected. I've grown quite fond of it though. It is a vegan blend (and I'm not a vegan guy). Overall, it's a great system that I'd definitely recommend.

Build quality and presentation are great! The quality of the shave is sub par. No matter how good you get at it, and yes you have to get used to it compared to modern razors, it doesn't shave close enough to give a clean shave; you'll have five o'clock shadow at best, which could be considered a feature for those that don't like baby face. I know Gillette make the sharpest thinnest razors so I may buy some refills from them to try and see if i have a better experience.

I have tested a ton of razors, and the Thorn is hands-down my favorite for many reasons. This kit is also a great value with accessories that are actually worth the extra $20 you pay over the standalone razor. The Leaf and Supply razors were constantly popping up in my social media feeds, and I decided to give the Supply a try. Great customer service, but it didn't impress me. I bought a Leaf (the razor with the 1, 2, or 3 blade option) and found it was great but impossible to get under my nose. I then bought a Twig and found it to be surprisingly pleasant, but a bit too mild for daily use. Then I tried the Thorn. WOW! Though the Thorn only has .2mm more blade exposure, that makes a big difference. I would compare this to Level 4 on my Gillette adjustables. A nice medium shave that doesn't leave my skin cut or irritated. I would compare this to the type of shave I was comfortable with for years on my disposable Gillette Fusions. For anyone just getting into the safety razor world, you need to understand that this type of razor doesn't require the near-scrubbing pressure you need with a disposable. You use virtually no pressure and just let the razor do the work as you gently glide it across your skin. Avoid going against the grain until you have mastered the technique. Though you can save $20 and get the standalone razor, I highly recommend this Twig or Thorn kit because you're getting an extra 50 blades, a matching stand and a blade disposal tin. I rarely give five-star reviews, but this Thorn set is worthy. Two enthusiastic thumbs up from me.
