The Micromatic twist-to-open mechanism has your fingers safely a few cm away from the edge when the top cap opens.

Is the TTO knob on this razor still at the bottom of the handle?

Loving these write-ups btw, I’m learning a lot from them. It’s a great introduction to the different GEM razors.

Yes, all 5 Micromatics have that same TTO mechanism you know from your Clog-Pruf.

Glad you like them! I've been wanting to do this series for a while but kept procrastinating
