    Anyone seen one live or hear any reports?
    I understand the head is not Merkur.

    That's just great. As if they weren't getting enough of my money for brushes! :happy102

    It sure LOOKS like a Merkur head. Looks just like my Chatsworth. The handle is diffderent.

    Hmmm.....might be a Parker head. Looks a lot like my 89r head. If so, it's a good shaver or at least mine is.

    According to Lee Sabini of Rooney:

    "The heads where made for me in India then re-plated in Sheffield. All other parts of the razor are made and plated in UK."

    I'm having some vintage Gillette New Heads and Tech heads nickel plated to go with my handles, for those who need a complete razor.
    I have some faux ivory too, it's polyurethane.
    Faux is French for fake.
