WEISHIButterfly Open Double Edge Safety Razor Nostalgic Adjustable Matte Black

Tried everything from disposable to replaceable cartridge to even OneBlade (tm)... Decided I've had enough and ready to try DE razor, as cost of those items have gone up, and DE blades are dirt cheap (If you use one DE blade a week, $10 will get you 100 blades, which is enough to last you 2 YEARS!)The actual item did not disappoint. The butterfly mechanism works exactly as shown... The top opens and you can load the DE blade easily. Reverse spin to close.This is an adjustable razor, which means the angle of the blade can be adjusted slightly to provide a sharper... or shallower shave. If you just started using DE razors, keep the setting low (2-3). If you need sharper angles (closer shave) then turn up the settings gently to maybe 5 or 6, and remember to use plenty of shaving gel or foam or whatever you use. I chose an adjustable, but you can pick a "fixed" razor to save a few bucks, it just won't be this model.And they have different finishes to suit your mood... silver/steel, pewter, rainbow chrome, and so on.This came with 5 of their own branded blades to get you started, and as I don't have very thick facial hair, I only use about one a week. It is somewhat surprising that I need to replace them that quickly, but then, you don't want to shave with a dull razor, even a DE razor. Turning up the angle setting doesn't really help. I've tried.As mentioned before, if you use one blade a week, $10 will last you TWO YEARS. Even the famous H-brand razors with replaceable heads runs $18-20 a month! And these guys claim to have their own European factory making those heads themselves for savings! You'll make back what you spent on these in just a few months!So if you want to give DE razors a try, this one is great. It's not super-weighty, it's not "crafted from aircraft aluminum", it's just a solid DE razor you can shave with, and it works well.

I recently made the switch from a 5-blade cartridge razor to the WEISHI Nostalgic Adjustable Double Edge Safety Razor, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Yes, there’s a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, this razor delivers the best shave I’ve ever had.I use it on both my face and head, and the closeness of the shave is unmatched. The adjustable settings allow for a personalized experience, whether I need a gentle shave or something more aggressive. Plus, this razor is incredibly durable and well-constructed, with a solid feel in hand that tells me it’s built to last. If you’re considering making the switch, I highly recommend giving this razor a try—your skin will thank you!

I recently made the transition to this product from Harry's disposables as I was concerned over the waste that kind of razor generates. I was nervous about cutting my face up with this style razor, but as the name implies, it's quite safe and easy to use!I chose this razor because of its style and price and I don't regret it. It's got a satisfying heft, the matte black finish looks handsome and feels nice to the touch. While I didn't notice an enormous difference between the numbered settings, all around, I felt like I was getting a really close and comfortable shave, moreso than I'd ever gotten with disposables.Before purchasing, the butterfly top made me nervous. However, once I got to see/feel how this mechanism works I felt a lot better. The blade feels very secure once the top is closed.The only disappointment I have had with this razor is after the first shave, the razor head got clogged with hair, and there's no easy way to remove it. I kept looking for a latch or some trick to loosen it: swirling it under water, under the faucet, etc. Ultimately I had to get in there with a small pick and manually remove the clumps of hair by hand.Other than that, this is a great razor that I look forward to using for many years to come!

it's awesome and the best shave I've ever had I recommend you put it on level 2 cause this autistic man has sensitive skin and it shaves very well I would buy it again

There is a big problem with the adjustable part of this adjustable razor. The blade tray does not sit properly, it is tilted causing a large variation in blade gap along the edge of the razor which would make a shave very bad and dangerous. I have tried the so called Blade tray resetting maneuver numerous times with not one time the tray seating in the proper position. Sadly ill be returning this razor because it just doesn't do what it is supposed to, be adjustable And be safe to shave with.I was able to return my item and was told that they are working to improve any issues with their products and that a short handle version would be coming to market soon. im looking forward to that becasue i prefer the short handels over long. I would buy Another Weishi razor in the future, and will look for the adjustable again.

I used Feather blades for my first go. I really love the weight, length and diameter of the handle. The opening operates smoothly (so far - it is new). I set the adjustment beginning at 1 and gradually got to 3, where it felt about right to me. Shave was good. I opened it a little to rinse it out as there was foam under the blade - no big deal. Its easier to load than my old standard razor, and nicer than the old Gillette butterfly razor that I inherited from my father. Didn't give it perfect rating for "value", which I assumed was cost, but it was money well spent.

Nice quality and weight
