How do you feel about the genesis? I have one too, but I find it doesn't quite shave like they show in the videos. I'm pretty much just letting the blade pressure do the job, but I always see people dragging the shit outta it.

The Genesis is a well made razor. The more I use it the more I like it. But the spring on the pivot is a bit heavy. I never apply enough pressure while shaving to bend the pivot. I thought about swapping out for a lighter spring (like a keeb switch) but it works well as is. As you said, I agree with just letting the weight of the razor do its job, applying very little pressure on the blade.
