One thing I've been hearing about is microplastics in Teflon, and that even a small scratch in the surface can be an issue.
But, I'm not a paranoid health-nut, so I use them for stuff anyway.

Didn't anybody ever tell you that Lodge Cast Iron is perfectly seasoned straight from the factory?!? They use their special proprietary techniques that will make an egg slide straight off of the surface, even if that surface is rougher than 40 grit sandpaper!

My Zowie FK2 does that sometimes too, but only with the middle button. It's weird though, it'll happen a bunch for like a week, then it just goes away.

Reply to comment by caturdayz in If you shave, get a shaving handle that uses a simple disposable razor. The razor lasts much longer than anything at your local store and provides a better shave. by bi_polar2bear
Seconded. Been wetshaving for nearly two decades now. Always nice to see people waking up to the scam. Multi-blade cartridge style razors are way too expensive, wasteful, and actually promote a less comfortable shave.
The initial investment *can be* a little steep. $20-$30 for a vintage SuperSpeed in good condition, $50-$80 for a nice badger brush, $15 for a blade sampler to figure out which blade your face likes, and $10-$15 for soap. But you can always start with just the handle and blades and whatever can-o-foam you already have and get the brush/soap later on.
Of course if you end up being a "collector" it can get very expensive. But even then, at least you'll still get a better quality shave than those cartridge razors.
