Pros & Cons
Pros
This thing absolutely rocks. This razor is an incredible example of bang for your buck. This thing is top tier quality for the low price point of 18 bucks.

This razor is an ok buy for someone new to using safety razors to shave. Shoddy quality of screw in protector.
Highlights
Quality
Quality heavy duty razor very comfortable shave
I love the heavy, all metal construction, and it looks like it will last me the rest of my life!

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!
Great razor at a fair price mark.
For under $20, you can get the closest shave with minimal effort with this de safety razor.
It's amazing this sells for less than 20 dollars.

I have other razors , 2 expensive joris, 3 muhle , 4 edwin jagger, 2 mehaz, 2 german slant, and several more.
Don’t buy weishei, van der hagen, or any other similar looking razors.

Ive been using a single blade safety razor for 20 years or more one i bought at an antique store but it was getting a bit grungy after two decades so i thought id spring for a new one

I was completely bowled over by the quality of the workmanship particularly at this price point
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It also is very well made though i didnt realize it lacks the mechanical gizmo that lets you insert a new blade without disassembling the razor

Thats my bad though i should have read the description more carefully

If youre still using a 34modern34 sixblade ridiculous piece of plastic that mucks up the environment and requires devicespecific overpriced blades do yourself a favor and just toss that thing in the trash where it belongs
