    Interesting razor, John. Glad it worked somewhat decently!

    My rubric:
    B - DFS with 2 cuts.
    C - Didn't complete the shave because you had to go to ER for stitches

    D - Didn't complete the shave because of very large cuts on the neck and face that requires stitches.

    F - You shouldn't be straight shaving because you will slit your throat.

    Yes, considering the ways in which a Chinese razor could be expected to fail, this one (if anything) fails to the overly mild side.

    And it came with a razor storage box which has a shelf life of "Indefinite"! :)

    Thank you, Andrew!
    I can get away with a full three passes on my neck which still doesn't get the hollows completely smooth. My face I can get BBS on most days. If I miss BBS on my face it's my right jaw. I have a really coarse patch of whiskers there that takes a considerable amount of buffing to knock down.

    Now you know you'll need to swap your blade out today or two weeks from now. Glad we could help.

    Hmm, it doesn't look like the typical gold wash of the era and it doesn't look like a re-plate. Are there any places on the razor where the plating has worn off ?

    Well Andrew I'll check and see when I get home. Others here would know more about it than I. I haven't looked at it to well, I like the way it shaves, so the look is not that importaint to me. Let ya know what I figure out, if anything.
    Thanks
