Arrived today, all $6.99 of it, pictured with its Ming-Shi/Q-Shave (top) and original (1985ish Hoffritz) Futur (center). Cosmetics and feel are fine, magnetic cap works, but I'm a bit dubious that alignment is spot on. Not exactly a baby, its weight is closer to the Futur than the other Chinese contender.
I saw someone left a review on the Amazon page for it about an issue with the head. But there were a lot more positive reviews on it so it may have just been a case of a lemon. Or bad apple here and there. Worth a try for $6.99 and returnable for replacement or refund.
I bought this too...and used it today...did not enjoy the shave although it gave good results...found it a bit rough...its worth the price but will I really reach for this when i have so many better options...its too heavy for me and not smooth enough to impress...the ming shi futur clone 2000s is a much better shaver imho.... i even prefer it to the merkur futur Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

Forget everything you know about the Futur and other clones, this is very mild but capable razor, and a cuckoo value at its asking. First SOTD: https://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/sos-june-2021.65519/page-46#post-1974831

Mine arrived today. Just could not pass at least trying it for $6.99 shipped free. Thankfully I didn't get one of the lemons. No canting or adjusting issues. The gaps are even throughout adjustment. It is a bit awkward to adjust since you have to grab the head somewhere to turn the whole bottom handle.
I researched the Wecut blades... They are actually made in Solingen, Germany by a company called Mozart. Mozart has been making industrial and shaving - DE and injector, carbon and stainless - blades since 1923. So I will definitely be trying out the blades as well. https://www.mozart-blades.com/en/about-us#history
Again interesting that Rockwell would go to that trouble. It didn't work in their favor with the 6C/6S. Sent from my Google Chromebook Pixel (2015) using Tapatalk
Almost nobody liked the Rockwell branded blades that came with the 6S/6C. When refinedshave did their objective testing of sharpness the Rockwell were near rock bottom. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk
Geez I'm on the wrong thread talking about Rockwell lol. Pay me no mind. Got my two new razor threads mixed up. Senility. Carry on Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk
