Skarp, a laser-powered razor garnering $4 million on Kickstarter, has been suspended from the crowdfunding site. After evaluating the readiness of the prototype featured in a video on their campaign page, Kickstarter said in a statement, "We've concluded that it is in violation of our rule requiring working prototypes of physical products that are offered as rewards." Skarp has since created a campaign on IndieGogo.
