Pros

I have nicked myself using feather blades in this razor, but astra blades work great in it. It gives a superb shave. Great craftsmanship on the shaver.

It is a heavy, stout handle that feels comfortable in the hand. It's a good razor but the contour of the handle makes it a little difficult to hold. Handle screws on tight.

This razor has great balance and a nice heft to it. It's a little heavy specially for me. This piece is solid.



Cons

This razor is defective in both build quality and design. Build quality leaves the blade sitting diagonally in the razor. Shoddy quality of screw in protector.

The vikings blade delivers a shoddy shave.

I had the emporer to begin with and with the mechanics it was terrible and kept clogging.

Price


For the price i would recommend just buying it!

And the pharmacy had another for a buck .
