I don't think so. I don't think that's an issue as I've had razors with very terrible blade clamping that shave extremely well (think blackbird or RS-10). I don't think there's anything wrong with the razor design. I think it's just me.

Roger that, Thanks


Hey Dave, got a question about a razor you had for sale in a currently closed thread. Can you pm me?

If you can open up the wade and butcher safety razor post I’ll message you there. If you still have the item, I’m interested.

I don't have an extra one now so it must have sold. I'll go look though.

Lukevan Yep it sold on eBay for more when there wasn't interest here, sorry

I wasn't happy with the aesthetics when I first saw it, and didn't like the handle, but now that I have it, it isn't nearly as bad. The handle while not the prettiest, is very comfortable. The razor seems very well built, so there shouldn't be any concerns about quality because it was made in China.

Shaving WTG feels great. It's efficient enough and smooth. But unfortunately, I have not been able to get along with it going ATG. I get a ton of nicks and a decent amount of irritation, which I never ever get.

I tend to like more efficient, blade forward razors, so I'm not sure why this one isn't working for me. Brian's (charcoal goods) razors also didn't work for me. Not even the L2, so there's that.

All in all, I think this razor is a great value. Don't let my experience deter you as everyone is different and you can't really know if you'll like something until you try it. Plus, Andy has a 30 day return policy.

I'm not giving up on it yet. I'll give it another go in the future.

A 30 day return policy does you no good when you can't get the razor and you have to rely on a vendor that constantly gives false release information!! Value or no value its just sad it has come to this.

Is it 30 days from purchase date or when you receive it? In either case, I'm going to keep it.

Most likely after receiving. I don’t think he’d have supply issues and then say you have 30 days from date of PURCHASE to return the razor.

You don’t see many in SOTD’s.  Hard to understand this one…
