New manufactured razor
Ok everyone I Purchased one of these HERE and I received it today opened the box pulled it out and looked it over, the quality at first sight was "cheap", you get what you pay for. The pinning was terrible, scales plastic, the edge nearly shave ready tho this can't be, but yes I did about 20 passes on my green Gem barber hone from redtrader99 did a HHT, bam good, slapped it on the pasted board for 20 laps and on the strop for 10 - 15 wow seams to shave the hair on the back of my hand with ease. will try it in the morning and see. Oh btw the blade was straight I couldn't believe it. I did think the steel was a little soft in comparison to the Sheffield and German razors but we will see how it holds the edge as my beard is a little medium to heavy.

Well it's better than the Pakistani razors still needs a little work on the edge I will try it a few more times then may need to pass it to another hone meister for additional evaluation.

Well so far seems to be a decent razor I did make some modifications to the heel so it would hone easer in the heel area. I would say worth the money spent for 10 bucks including shipping would not give more than 12 though still to new will take a few shaves to determine how long the edge will hold up. This might be a good test for RazorLast

Well shaved with it again this morning used the C&E Sandalwood and got a BBS. I think its a good razor for the money. Had to do the modifications but worth it. Here is a link to the modifications.
