Review (4/5): A fairly aggressive razor
Coming from my mild Rimei and Baili razors, I'd say this razor is pretty aggressive. Significantly higher blade exposure than what I'm used to. I have very coarse, tough facial hairs, but pretty sensitive skin on my throat and upper lip, so as you can imagine, shaving can be a nightmare for me if the razor and blade combo is wrong.
I like this razor, but it will take some getting used to. I would recommend using a less sharp, smoother blade at first, such as a Derby or a Big Ben, unless you already know you can handle the combination of an aggressive razor with a very sharp blade.
I first ordered the Rapira Swedish Supersteel razor, but it came with a bent guard (looked damaged in shipping), so I sent it back. Aside from that, that razor has a metal handle (zinc?) and the weight was more balanced towards the handle. This razor is overall lighter and the weight is more balanced towards the head, which I prefer. The head on both razors is the same Tech-type design.
The handle is good, probably not as tough as a metal handle though. I'd prefer a better grip on it, similar to a rougher checkered surface like on a plastic rifle stock or something, but it does the job.
