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. 🤣
I use a straight razor! I think I spent ~100 USD on it... forgot the brand/make, but with a decent water stone + leather strop most half-decent straight razors can be honed to be quite good
I only use it for face shaving. Because I wanted something that is both 1) highly effective (want to go for a 100% clean look) and 2) environmentally friendly... I started off with a safety razor too, later upgraded to the straight razor since it is as eco-friendly as it gets, no need for shaving cream/cartilages/etc. The razor was pretty cheap all things considered and the plastic handle has already fallen off, but the blade itself still works like new
Downside is 1) a bit more annoying to use as it has to be honed every time, and 2) much higher risks of accidental injury especially for beginners
I am considering getting an electric something for shaving other parts of the body though
