I have a earlier version of the Cobra Classic. It is still one of my favorite artist club razors. Given some of the recent negative feedback on the quality of the last release, I would pass and look for a used one.
I had the originalCobra Classic and the King Cobra from the previous release, I kept the Classic and sold the King as I preferred the shave from the classic better. I must say that the King was shipped to me wrapped in tissue paper laying in a USPS priority box, pretty poor for the price.
I did not pull the trigger on the King Cobra when it was on sale last week for $149.99. Price is up over $200 now. I'll look at the Mingoose or the SS General. If I see any early Cobras come up for sale though....
