I bought this razor about 6 months ago, from this site. Its beautifully made. The blade edge is so fine, you can hardly see it when observed lengthwise. I had no trouble with razorburn or cuts, when holding properly. Definitely make sure you oil it after every shave, as i have noticed a tiny rust spot that had begun on the handle, as it is high carbon steel. Im sure this razor will outlast me, and I will have something to pass down. You wont be disappointed if you get it.
