Pros & Cons
Pros
It glides on my face. The grip is adequate for shaving, which is the primary concern. It's a little slippery when twisting to replace blades when wet/soapy, if you find that sort of thing annoying.
Easy to use and satisfying results. I recommend anyone who has only used disposable razor to try safety razor. They are easier to clean and cheaper in the long term. The ease of cleaning.
This is only my second big-boy-real-blade razor and despite being the same general price, this razor is soo much better than the first one i bought. You can get a good sized pack and use a new one each time. I also like that it’s way easier to replace... Read More
Cons
The blade really irritates my skin to the point i have to use a lotion afterwards. Once you finally do shave, it just feels choppy and inconsistent.
Buyer beware. Even it says it is made of stainless steel, it will rust in 2 months. Do not for a second worry about those cartridges nickel and diming you to death. Don't recommend for men.

I threw away the sample blades this one came with since i already had a box of astra
Competitiveness
Most of my life i used the common disposable plastic multiblade razors or the more expensive refillable variety
I also do not believe there to spending much more than what i did for this weishi safety razor double edge nostalgic long handl... Read More

The finish is wearing off and at 15 it is certainly not a family heirloom but does the job

I previously used a cartridge razor and needed to replace my blades so i decided to check out alternative options before i went and bought a pack of cartridge heads

Compared to a cartridge razor this is more gentle on my skin and causes less postshave irritation and is also much cheaper to maintain because of how cheap replacement blades are

The shaver is much like the one i started shaving with 70 years ago as a kid

Careful as is sharp as it should be
