I'll keep this razor and use it, but it's not ideal. For the price, it's okay, though. I don't like how loose the blade is until the head is tightened all the way down. The blade alignment is maintained by the blade being tightly clamped in the head, not by the posts going through the two holes. Ideally, the blade would be aligned by the posts and the whole thing kept together by being screwed to the handle. If the screw loosens, the blade can move.
That said, it isn't that difficult to align the blade when you screw the head on. Once loaded with a blade and the head tightly screwed on, I do like how it shaves. It's very similar to a Merkur 34C. For me, it's weight and handle length are perfect. I can shave without having to apply any pressure, and I can go back and forth very easily.
I received this item at a reduced price in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.
