I used to think these razors were for old people but they are so much better than the modern cartridge system And this razor is excellent it gives a very smooth and close shave

Good to see Gillette back in the double edge razor game again - The razor is well balanced, with a well designed head ( R89ish??) and good finish for the price point. Hope this will be the start of a range of DE razors from Gillette.

Best double edged razor I have purchased the king blades are so smooth get 2-3 shaves out of each blade, along with the transparent shave gel best combination a man can buy

Great razor great shave can’t beat an old style razor 

Good quality razor, nice weigh and nice blades.

Excellent razor and good value for money. Comfortable, mild and smooth shave. 

I liked this razor,it gave me a decent shave with a Gillette nacet blade in it,quite surprised seeing it was made in China but it felt comfortable in the hand and wasn't too light or too heavy

Saw a review for this online and thought I would give it a go. Ordered and delivered really quickly. First shave was great. Really nice weight and length to the razor and the top cap let's you get right in under your nose to those awkward spots. Three piece design with decent knurling on the handle to allow a firm grip. Happy customer. Hopefully a sign of more razors to come.

Really glad to be able to purchase a DE razor. It’s my preferred method of shaving ,it’s great to have a product that has less of an environmental impact with single use plastics. The Razor itself is very well made. And fit and finish are superb. The shaves are straightforward and efficient but without feeling aggressive. All in all this is a quality item and well worth the purchase price. I very happy with my purchase and would happily recommend it. 

I've bought dozens of DE and SE razors over the years and to be absolutely honest I did not have high hopes. For once I'm delighted to be wrong! Everything about this razor feels right, the weight and grip are spot on and though the shave is really smooth with very little blade feel (I used a Feather) it is not over mild like so many budget razors are. Best shave of the year. Like an earlier reviewer I will be picking up a "spare" when and if they are in stock again and this would be my first recommendation regardless of price.
