The few reviews I've read on the Spain made H&Rs weren't complimentary.

Well... I would not call it a great razor... Better than a gold dollar thats for sure... I think i was lucky as well... See i got it because i wanted a razor made in spain and i cant pay for a filarmonica at the moment :/
And i wanted to up my honing skills but i didnt want to practice on a super cheap Chinese or practice on a very nice razor! The razor has been good to me thou! And it shaves as good as my Ralf and my vintage boker! Now i want a vintage H&R!!! Lmao
