New Feather AS-D2 is here!
One of the first new Feather razors has arrived, Stefan from Nassrasur in Germany has received one and is going to test it tomorrow together with the old model. It's not yet known when they will be available for us.

From what I could tell reading through that thread with the help of Google Translate, the AS-D2 is visually very similar to the AS-D1; he also said that the blade gap and blade exposure, as measured by him, were identical.
If true, that really surprises me. I had hoped that maybe the D2 would be more aggressive.
I'll be interested in seeing more reviews from people who have tried the D1.

"If we had steak, we could have steak and eggs, if we had some eggs."
I can see the pictures, but I didn't translate. What's the difference between the two razors, other than a slight difference in the "shinyness" and the bottom plate's design? Do they shave differently? Probably a dumb question, but still --- (?)

should work for the pictures.
As far as how it shaves according to Stefan, the same as the old one. However he did say that in the first version there where some razors that where extremely mild compared to other batches. He obviously had one who shaves great and the new one shaved just as good.
But who is to say that all new ones will shave the same this time? I'm holding off until more people have reviewed the new one, too expensive for me to experiment.
His first delivery should arrive in 2 weeks and shipping to those who preordered would be begin next month.
