Try and return it and get a refund..

PM me I should have a real razor laying around here that is shave ready, just promise to pass it on to another beginner when yer done using it..

Here you can have this one, I just have to remember where I put it I will touch it up for you, it is a nice 5/8+ Torrey

A free razor and honed by Glen, now that's a flippin' deal man. I would suggest using the search box on this site, type in razors to avoid; it's on the wiki page I think? Print that list, and if you or your wife is going to buy another razor at some point for you, look at that list first. Saved me from buying one of the knock off "damascus" J Buckingham & Sons for $50, when most Damascus razors are $500+ when I was picking out my first straight. That right there is prime example of why Glen is always regarded as a stand-up awesome guy.
