I ordered a WR4 after using that prototype. My only other experience with an SE Artist Club razor was my Vector. I can get a great shave from the Vector (because: technique), but the goofy squared off threaded post bothers me. It offers a small benefit at a large cost in risk. Way too easy to cross-thread. I don't find the Vector a joy to use. OTOH, I like everything about the WR4.

Yeah, that squared-off thread post is trying to be too clever. It makes me think of all the cool concept cars that never go into mass adoption.
