Got my Popular today...my new favorite razor! Unbelievably comfortable shave with a Feather blade. I think I'm going to offload my Gillettes.

Not sure yet, debating which one to buy first. Might buy second hand from either UK or Canada or might buy new from an online store or direct. At the moment am leaning to the 5 piece combo (but mind you a few days ago I was leaning towards the slant).
For such a big purchase I may take my time deciding.
Sorry if that doesn't help!!
@jayinhongkong - glad you liked your popular. I never really enjoyed using it at all, which is why I gave it away.
that's the funny thing about wet shaving...every aspect is so subjective based on technique, hair and skin type, as well as just personal preference! The only way to find your sweet spot is by experimentation, but when you do, you'll be as smooth as a baby's bottom
Thank pin for giving your razor!
Now I am waiting for my trip to Germany in 2 weeks when I can buy blades and brush (you convinced me pin man).
I hope not!!!Original Post Deleted
If nail clipper are dangerous, DE blades are like WMD's
So, my Rimei arrived, looks great, feels very nice.
Haven't shaved with it yet, but looking forward to trying it out.
$3.99 from dx.com - here are some photos
So, I tried it with a feather blade - very good indeed.
Perfect for someone looking to get into DE, perfect for travelling, perfect as a "second" razor.
Actually, if I'm brutally honest, it would be fine as a primary razor too.
New to DE? get this razor, a blade sampler pack, a GOOD brush (at least the brush can be used with any type of shaving) and some quality shaving soap
