This is an inexpensive 3 piece razor out of Hong Kong, not sure if it's made in China but.... It's a fairly attractive, lightly made razor with a decent finish. All the parts line up as they should. Blade exposure is even and the blade gap is slightly larger than a Gillette Tech therefore it is abit more aggressive but not much. The handle get slick when wet forcing you to hold on tighter than you might like to. I paired it with a Shark SuperChrome blade, the shave was gentle and the razor seems very forgiving and comfortable. I usually do a 2 pass shave but this one requires 3 passes to get the same kind of results If you want a new razor rather than a vintage one, this might work for you. It is able to shave you well without breaking the bank.
