GOTTA is a good brand, definitely.
I have a GOTTA 120 Hamburg Ring from OLD_SCHOOL on this site and it's been one of my favorites for over a year now.

The WIKI has lots of good info:

I honed a Gotta razor for someone recently and I can say it seemed to be very nice steel and gave a very nice shave. The balance was nice also. I think you will enjoy this razor. You Gotta do it!

I used to have a "gottah" silver steel but it was stamped solingen silver steel.I put it into a hardware store to be honed and they ruined it.I regret not having it now.
