I've had one for a year a 6/8 bone handle, shaves great but took time and effort to get it right, but once right it stays that way. There are many who just say, 'chuck it' to these cheapies, but for a starter, a great opportunity to have a razor to hone, that isn't a $400 razor. patience for this one, but check out their strops.

Just to be sure, I wasn't criticizing them for it, just noting that it accounted for some of the other sites being more expensive. But they do look like nice razors. Of course, what the hell do I know!?
