Thanked: 275I've been using the aluminum Weishi:
eBay item number 140484598423
from vendor "nutnutretail"
which cost $12.60 _including shipping from Hong Kong_.
I think the same item is here:
Weishi Double edge safety razor (Mithril) on eBay.ca (item 160525345341 end time 06-Jan-11 16:38:58 EST)
It's very light, very "mild"
(opposite of aggressive). Works well with Feather blades, haven't tried it with anything else.
Feather blades are on eBay for around $0.50 each; they're very, very sharp, and last for several shaves.

Think I might go with ===>THIS<===
Treet 'Del-Rin'
Sale price: $6.99
Says it's heavy and comes with 2 blades.
That's just a little over $15 bucks for a starter kit. I'll see if I catch any new wet shavers with this plan.
Thank you,

Looks good to me! I use the similar Dorco 2pc plastic DE form time to time, and get fine shaves from it. The Dorco is surprisingly sturdy, for all plastic construction, and I imagine that the Treet will be similar.

Hello All,
Heh, so I am surprised at how small the Arko shave sticks are. It's no problem but I think I will give 2 rather than 1 sticks.
For some reason I was under the impression that these were the same size as deodorant sticks... They are half that sizeThe pictures make them look like the same size as a cleanser can.
They are 8cm tall by 3cm diameter BTW.
No problem I still have plenty!
