I got this one in trade for a Merkue that I did not particularly like and man shaving with this one is like heaven. I paired it with a Merkur blade (I know that's a risky poposition) but man this is among theb est of the lot. Rivals the 50s super speed and the Parker I also have in the den. Also makes a great entry level razor for when my son is ready to start learning to do the job.
