    Neolithium I am Canadian, eh

    Weishi is absolutely Chinese, you can google the corporate homepage which details their business.

    Is Chinese worse than Jappanese?

    what would you rather have, a Weishi or a Feather stainless razor? A Honda or Geely (Chinese car)?

    That's crazy. Mine had a Japan sticker on it.

    Sounds like my new ford truck. Says "proudly made in the USA" but all the parts on it are made in Japan. Go figure

    Maybe the Japanese parts are assembled in the U.S. That's the only thing that would make sense to me. Unless they are telling a bold faced lie.

    I like the VDH products, but for what they want to charge for something made in China, or Japan for that matter, I will not buy one of them. :angry019:

    That's understandable. Quality means a lot and is worth the price.

    Absolutely, I have several different brushes and the VDH performs just as well as some and better than others. I paid over 2 bills for 3 of mine and they dont get used as much as my VDH. 1 of them is soo big, its like using a pom pom on my face.

    I plan on breaking the VDH brush I got in my set, but I love my Omega brush... partiality maybe... attachment... probably... do I care? Pfft :p

    LOL,
    I like my brush. If it starts falling apart, I can always buy a new one for @most stores that carry them less than $20.00 if I have too I will get a Boar Brush CVS Pharmacy for $5.98 (more like a glorified TG&Y) Dapper-in-a-can-man way before your time. Ask your parents about them.:happy097: :shaver

    My folks didn't mess around with DE much. My mom learned how to shave her legs with a DE, but switched to cartridges. I actually got my dad to try my brush, lather, and razor tonight and he really liked it. He wants a shavette, so I know what he's getting for father's day! Cheap enough :p
