I umed and ared about a safety razor and to be honest, i won't be looking back!This is easy to put together, you get a pack of blades with it too. I've read about going slowly and having to shave differently to usual but actually I haven't noticed much difference in my technique and I didnt need to go much slower. I have nipped myself a couple of times but only the same way I would with any other razor.Does give a nice clean shave, and I haven't found any areas it doesn't work or glide well on.I didn't purchase the holder or anything extra as I didn't want to spend too much and not get on with it but I think I will purchase the extras next time.

Fantastic razor, 100% endorse especially with the 100 new blades for £5. Shave down-wards and never across and you will have the cleanest shave you've ever had - 4 Blades from Gillette? Pointless!

strong metal dont see it breaking dose the job

Bought this for my son, he loved it. It's very stylish and a great gift.

Great for a starter DE razor. Already saved me so much money as a daily shaver. Also it helps make line ups super sharp.

The safety razor is nice. The razor blades themselves are also decent quality, although one of them wasn't wrapped in wax paper and so I cut my finger badly. Be very careful when taking the razor blades out of the container in case this issue happens to you.

Well made, and comes with a packet of 5 high quality blades (although bear in mind that means you'll have to be home to receive it, which is a pain). As a safety razor, it's a nice balance of ease of use with aggression - it's a medium, and can be made a bit more 'aggressive' by using sharper blades if desired. Critically, although I like the heft - it's definitely on the heavy side - the handle is quite slim, and I think I'd probably prefer something a bit thicker - I've got big hands with long thin fingers. It's not a deal breaker though. All in all, for about 13 quid, it's something of a no-brainer. Gillette have obviously used their economies of scale and deep design experience to deliver a razor that's going to be hard to beat at anywhere near the price. Unless you're a hobbyist or have some very specific requirement, just buy one of these. It looks very pretty too!

Tremendous value for money and great razor
