Skarp can cut through hair because of a molecule called chromophore, the only continuous structure in hair that is shared by every human regardless of age, gender or race. The chromophores are cut when they're hit with a particular light wavelength. The laser melts the hair shaft right at the surface of the skin, so the roughness caused by traditional razors, which cut at an angle, are no longer a problem.
No, you can't play laser tag with these razors. It doesn't emit UV, and the power of the laser is too low to cause damage. Most importantly, the laser doesn't enter the skin or cause complications that can happen from traditional laser hair removal, according to the Kickstarter page.
Skarp can be used with water, but it's not necessary, which means users can also reduce the amount of water they use when shaving and lathering.
My only question is can I use it down below. Nah mean?

A lot of those claims sound like snake oil. Laser hair removal is a thing but it doesn't work on heatless low power magic wavelength fairy dust in the shape of a convenient disposable razor. It's a treatment that destroys (dark) hair follicles.
They need to either give more details to allow more informed scrutiny or at least demonstrate a working prototype before I give this another look.
Even what they claim doesn't sound any better than a normal electric razor.
This was literally my first thought when I saw the title.
