Until someone wants to do some detective work, I think it makes sense for Str8trazor to continue to work on getting a good edge on this razor.

It seems to me if they show all those other personal care items, they have to be legitimate ..... perhaps they only market in Germany or greater Europe.

Sorry so late in responding my computer, for some reason, was not alerting me on these latest threads. Thanks for the url on Mehaz. Below is a quote from their webpage so I guess that the razor and some of their other products are made in Solingen, Germany unless of course they are lying. What fo you guys think. I guess if I really have trouble I can send it to them and have them keen it. But before I do that I am going to exhaust all of my capabilities in sharpening this thing and will update you.

"At Mehaz, perfecting beauty is truly a science. Years of experience go into the precise manufacture of every manicure implement. Old World craftsmanship combined with modern technology results in the finest tools available to the salon profession.

Every implement from Mehaz is manufactured from the highest quality materials in Solingen, Germany. Experienced craftsmen, who take pride in their work hand finish each implement to perfection. From there the precise design and rigorous inspection of every Mehaz product unfolds. The result? Products so well made, we guarantee them for life and offer free sharpening service to keep them in top condition. Mehaz nippers are maintained without service charge: while Mehaz shears are accomodated at a nominal fee."

Well, it's guaranteed for life and they sharpen free, so youmight have something to fall back on.

Why not go for it?
I think I've seen them on barber supply websites, and perhaps one, in person. Wouldn't surprise me a bit if it came off of Dovo's line, though. Joe also has a point....no Paki razor I've seen comes with a lifetime guarantee....let alone free sharpening.
based on that alone I'd be willing to try one. Whats to lose?

I agree I am going to hone this baby and see what happens. Maybe it will be like Korndogs razor from hell the edge has oxidized and deteriorated. I will hone it off with the 1000 and then refine it from there. If that doesn't work I will send it back to the company with only the spine (back) remaining. LOL

The Mehaz International looks remarkably like the Fromm International 72R razor. Stamping on the tang is identical. The nicer Fromm 50 has the same Solingen inlaid into the handle too but the tang stamping is different on that model.
It is implied that Dovo makes the Fromm but they will not give me that in writing. I sell a lot of the Fromm razors and most will easily take an edge.
I am replacing them with Hen & Rooster razors as soon as my current supply is gone.

I don't know if you saw this post, but Hen and Rooster is using China for some of their knives:
