Thanked: 39Some Venders need to be beat severely about the head and shoulders with a stick, if only for their stupidity or for being to lazy to do ANY research at all on their items..

Thanked: 1184We have a list of banned razors. I suggest if you find a site selling any of these, go elsewhere. Anyone respected here will not sell those for ANY reason. It's okay to bash if you don't name names ...( I hope ) :<0)
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

Although it is against the rules to bash any vendors, anyone with information should private message with experience.

I was dumb & bought their "Vintage Beginner Straight Razor". Shave ready & lifetime honing promised on a razor that was "restored vintage blades manufactured in Germany, US & UK. They range from a wide variety of Solingen and other manufacturers. From Dubl Duck, Dovo, Boker, J.A. Henckels and countless others."
For $69 I should have known it was too good to be true. I got a razor with no markings at all that was way too dull to shave with. I found an old razor in a drawer from Pakistan, & it was identical. The new one was bigger, but other than that it was a perfect double. I sent them an email & got a rude answer saying it was tested multiple times to be shave ready.

Now that ive got well over a year experience and knowledge I stay well away from that website and all affiliated websites selling the same mediocre items to beginners..
To be fair I bought the starter kit from them too so I wouldn't be here today without them.. the strop and Soap were decent.

Maybe the razor was dulled from all the testing.
