Handle shorter than expected

I really like this razor and have ordered the extra long handle which is recommended for those who use it to shave their legs. The handle feels very similar to my previous disposable razors, not "long". It can certainly be used, but I don't want to see what a standard length handle looks like! Excellent quality, heavy but balanced in the hand. Easy to disassemble and replace the blade.

  • Sturdy construction

An expensive razor that works very well.

The razor shaved off my thick beard perfectly. I wish it was cheaper. The only other safety razor I can compare it to is the ten-year-old Merkur Futura. I used Platinum Feather blades on both razors. This safety razor gave me a close shave without cutting my face like Futura often (almost always) does. cheaper badger hair brushes Shaveway 100% pure badger hair shaving brush - designed for the best shave of your life! No matter what method you use, safety razor, safety razor, straight razor or…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Not fashionable

Great razor at Razors & Blades

Great razor, never cuts skin, smooth. It should have a long handle but I don't know how to hold it in my hands and it can be used but it's a little difficult to hold it with wet hands.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

It just wasn't for me.

It appears to be a well made razor, attractive enough and maybe suitable for other faces, but it didn't give me a good shave so I returned it. I have a fairly expensive Rockwell razor, a very cheap "beginner's razor" that I bought from Target, and two Merkur razors, both long handles, and I LOVE them both, especially the "Barber Pole" model. So I will stick to them.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Functionality

I just used it for the first time and I love it!

This is my first safety razor. I chose this one because of the size, among other things. It's longer than most and is a good weight. This is a beautiful razor that appears to be made with great craftsmanship. It didn't shave as smoothly as one of the multi-bladed plastic models you can buy at the grocery store, but that's probably because I put so little effort into it. It came with a double-edged feather blade that was incredibly thin and terribly sharp. I've read several horror stories from…

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • Can hurt

Bought twice good

I bought two of these, one for myself many years ago and the other recently for my girlfriend. First comment: I canceled my original purchase maybe 2 months after getting it in the shower at about waist height. He fell on his head and broke the bolted connection, rendering it unusable. I contacted the Revain seller and they sent me a new one with no question. Excellent response time and customer service! I found my girlfriend commenting on the double edge razor several times and decided to give

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Something different
