Good looking, aggressive razor - be careful!
This is a solid, attractive razor with a screw-off top and machine grooved handle to add grip when holding with a wet or soapy hand.  It has a very appealing brass / copper appearance, contrasting nicely with stainless steel.  It comes with a pack of double edged razors, but I loaded it up with a [[ASIN:B08P5K9GMJ Feather blade]], and it shaved very well, but with a very careful and light touch.<br /><br />The razor angle is a bit more open and a hair steeper than a [[ASIN:B004VBISXU Merkur 25-C]] or the [[ASIN:B01LQ95IGE Bevel razor]], so a very careful light touch is needed.  I know that Feathers are extremely sharp, but using them in this razor gave me plenty of weepers (small cuts) on my lower neck where the previously mentioned razors do not.  That's not necessarily a bad thing - some folks prefer a more aggressive razor.  It's an adjustment to make if you're used to other types of safety handles.<br /><br />So be aware this is a somewhat stronger shave - if this is your first safety razor, you'll probably spend your first few mornings looking like you had a fight with an alley cat for a little while.  And if you're used to the other kinds of fixed top screw-off safety handles, this will require an adjustment.<br /><br />Still in all, a comfortable, good looking, properly balanced and weighted razor.  At this price, it's definitely worth a try.
