    Is this a man's or woman's razor? I've seen it called both the Blue Lady and the Starburst. It's a '71. Thanks.

    It was marketed to the women. Your face will never know. They are fantastic razors.

    It's marketed as a woman's razor.

    I was gonna buy one of those as my first de totally agree with swarden, but you may need to hid it from your significant other, or you'll be out a razor and all your best smelling soaps and balms

    Or not hide it and watch your soap and aftershave collection grow like weeds. :D

    Think of them like a long handled Super Speed ...;)

    That's as clean as I've been able to get the head. And, sadly, I left it in Barbacide too long and the satin-finish at the top of the handle is now cloudy, and much of the paint in the starbursts is gone.

    I don't have to worry about that . . . my wife thinks my new obsession is "stupid."

    Marketed for women but my father has been using one for about 40 years.
