My expectations were surpassed
I kind of bought this on a whim thinking it'd be a fun gimmick razor to have in the collection.
It's now replaced my main razor and the stupid multiblade I still used for quick shaves.
Why? Set it to 6 (aggressive) on Monday morning when I've got two or three days of growth from my shave on Friday morning. Then set it to 1, 2, or 3 the rest of the week when I'm just taking off a normal day of growth.
But even better than the adjustable blade exposure is changing blades. It's literally a snap. Pop off the cap, knock the old blade off onto the counter and place the new one on and snap on the cap. Done. It takes longer to get the blade out of its wrapper than to change it on the handle.
10/10, considering getting one for my son.

One of my first hard soaps. Slickness and the lather was amazing. Scent was one of a kind. Once I'm low on all my shaving soaps, I will get another Cassion shaving soap.

I wish I had tried one of these years ago!
All that I can say is that this is a awesome and well built piece of equipment and I really like the fact that it is adjustable!

Best blades ever for me
I rolled the dice because the old Astra brand blades changed ownership and went downhill. These work every bit as good as the old ones- and better. I realized I’m down to a few months left (each blade gets me through at least a week- I skip a day every now and then) and came back for more only to see they are out of stock. Hopefully they’ll be back before I’m out!

Smooth Shave
I have been shaving daily for about 65 years and enjoy trying many shaving products just for variety. I have been through all the major brands from Casswell-Massy to Barbasol and from shaving pucks to aerosols. I appreciate the small cans of Caisson products for their great fragrances and excellent lather. So many other brands have no fragrance other than a chemical blocking fragrance or a named aroma such as lavender, which bears no resemblance to the plant. Many do not lather well even after several minutes of stirring. Caisson has solved these problems with a product that smells great and produces a thick lather in about 30 seconds. I find that brush shaving lifts and lubricates the whiskers better than any other system and really takes no more than a minute of extra time to produce and apply a lather and then rinse your equipment. If you shave in the shower, the Caisson cans will resist damage from water, whereas a varnished wooden case will not.

Our shaving soaps are made in the USA and packed in screw-top aluminum tins for use at home or on the move. Lather with a brush at the sink or water and your hands when you're traveling light.
The military roots are right there in names like Fire For Effect, Bohica Blend, and Sniper Scent. Pick your scent, get your shave, and carry on.
New to shaving soap?
Start with wet skin and a damp brush. Load a little soap, then add water as you work it into a lather. If it feels thick or dry, add a few drops and keep going. You can also lather with water and your hands.
- Wet your skin Use warm water to wet the area you're shaving. Keep it damp while you build the lather.
- Load the brush Wet the bristles with warm water and shake off the excess. Swirl the damp brush over the soap to pick up a small amount.
- Build the lather Work the brush over wet skin or in a shaving bowl. Add water a few drops at a time until the lather spreads easily. Thick, pasty lather needs more water. If it becomes thin and runs off, load a little more soap.
- Shave with light pressure Use short strokes in the direction your hair grows and rinse the razor regularly. Reapply lather before going over an area again. If you're using an adjustable safety razor for the first time, begin with a mild setting.
- Rinse and dry Rinse away the remaining lather. Rinse your brush and razor, pour any standing water out of the soap tin, and let everything dry before packing it away.
No brush?
Wet your hands and the soap surface. Work up a small amount of lather between your palms, adding a little water as needed, then apply it to wet skin. You can lather Caisson soap with a brush or your hands.
