Review on Chrome Plated King C. Gillette Double Edge πŸͺ’ Safety Razor Handle with 5 Platinum Coated Refills Pack by Hideo ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the quality is good and the price is reasonable.

In comparison to the cost, quality is an attractive alternative. Before that, there were never any razors in the shape of a T, so there is nothing else to compare them to. Entire blades either wear out rapidly and are not very sharp when they are first used and do not last very long (although they should not cut the skin), or they should be such. I am going to experiment with blades from several brands. After using it for a while, I came to the conclusion that it would be convenient to have a function that could widen the space that separates the upper and lower halves of the blade. This space could be widened or narrowed by unscrewing the handle, which would be the only way to adjust it. As the edge of the blade wears down, it can be sharpened by increasing the space between the two halves of the blade (by rotating the handle in the opposite direction) so that the angle is altered. The screw that turns the handle to the top became bent after I dropped the constructed razor on the floor, and I was unable to properly straighten it out.

Pros
  • - zero negative impact on the environment
Cons
  • - there is no adjustability for the grip on the blade - entire blades are sufficient for a few uses
