Double Edge Razor LORD Chrome ---GREAT VALUE---

 (66 customer reviews)

In short, it's almost as good as a cartridge razor. If you're just looking for a cheap razor that will last years, this is a good choice.

I've been using a Mach III Turbo for years, but the handle's rubber is starting to rot, so I thought I'd try a double-edge razor. I bought this razor as it was cheap but had good reviews. Curious to compare them, I've been shaving half my face with one, half the other, alternating sides for the last week or two, using a new blade for both.

I'm pretty happy with it. Most days I get a slightly better shave with the Mac III Turbo, but not by a large enough margin to care, and sometimes the Lord works better. On a few days I've had mild irritation with the Lord, but I think that's inexperience with the style of razor; that's happening less and less as I get used it, I doubt it will be a problem after a month.

First off I am brand new to brush and safety razor shaving. I have used disposable razors and soap (hand lather) for many years. Recently I decided to try out a brush for lathering the soap. This led me to try a safety razor as well. I am still using the same soap as before (Dove) except I softened it and pressed it into a plastic cup and lather it with a brush. For an item at the bottom of the barrel price wise (not counting plastic ones) I am very pleased with the initial quality of this razor. Since my primary motivation for going to a safety razor is economy and not to start a new hobby, I think this razor will suit me just fine. My first shave was adequate with very little carnage. I believe with patience and practice this razor will serve me well. If for no other reasons than its light weight and low price, it seems to be a serviceable introduction to safety razors for me. My may upgrade at some point but more to get a twist to open razor than to "move up" to a higher quality...Read more

I bought this razor a few weeks ago, as an intro to old-school safety razor shaving. From my first shave, I knew I wasn't going back to disposables. Not a single nick, not even a scratch from day one. I've also been using Alum, as I have a pretty sensitive, curly-bearded neck. I am also still using the original trial blade with great success. This has been well-worth the price, and I heartilly recommend this to anyone interested in learning.
