    Yep, definitely not in my collection.

    Technically this is low carbon steel so would not really expect any durability from the edge.

    Also, "Scary sharp, cut you to the bone" ≠ smooth shaving.

    Does not really need to go in the "Brands to avoid list". I would think the price makes it an obvious no go.

    I agree with all of the above! I would save my money for something more reputable, probably a vintage Sheffield or something of the like........................
    Don't waste your money on that. Plus it has some kind of grip tape on the scales which would eventually come off. The tang has no name on it so whose to say he's not getting a lot of Pakistan blades for a really cheap price & making these razors from them? Like onimaru55 said, it is more than likely it is a low carbon steel. I wouldn't buy it! To me it would be like buying a Kriegar or something similar.........................
    Nothing really to brag about or worth having. It is good you asked first before pulling the trigger but save your money & buy something more known & one which many on here might own!
