Chinese clone of Grand Shave King

I used PayPal as well.

If the blade is touching the skin how does it leave lather behind. Not being snarky..honest question.

 

It was the gimmick of the original razor.

I am still lost as to how that works. Does the lather flow back over the blade or something? Or does it just stay in the head?

 

Honestly I’ve never shaved with a razor that didn’t get some shaving cream or lather on the head. Whether it came in from the side, or I started my path on top of the lather at some point there is slather on the top of my razor. I’m assuming that’s how the lather is supposed to get into the grooves and become self lubricating. Maybe it’s just me I don’t know I don’t think it actually works that way I think it looks cool and for four dollars I don’t mind spending that to try it out

If it's anything like the GSK, it's extremely mild and the DOC ads nothing to the shave. I agree it's a gimmick, but it looks good.

Thanks guys. That was my thinking...gimmick. But looks cool as heck. At that price why not eh?

 

According to the original patent:

"My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in a safety razor, and has for its object the provision of a safety razor so constructed and arranged that when dipped in water or placed in a running stream of water, it will retain a quantity of the water and release the same when the cutting edge of the blade is placed against the face.

"It is another object of the invention to provide a safety razor so constructed and arranged that it may moisten the lather immediately preceding the cutting blade as it is drawn over the face.

"Another object of the invention is the provision of a safety razor having a back plate provided at its opposite edges with transversely directed longitudinally spaced apart slots of such a width as to provide water receiving and retaining spaces so thatas the razor is drawn over the face in the shaving'operation, the water retained in the slots will flow onto the face and serve moistening purposes."​

 

Thanks John. That is interesting.

 

I did not see PayPal as an option. How do you pay with PayPal at AliExpress?

 

I downloaded the app and when I was in my shopping cart it was there

Magic!!!!!! ..... Ooooooooo ahhhhhhh wow!

 

I retried today, and still paypal is not available... I wonder if paypal is only available for certain countries.

 

Well, I got an email saying AliExpress had refunded my order. No explanation. So I guess I'm not getting one.

 

They probably have something against purple dinosaurs.

 

I see a lot of that.

I found a real GSK at a local place for $8. Does that help?

Only if you sell it to me

Yeah, must be country based. I'm on the site in the U.S. and PayPal is listed.
