TectoStraight Cut Throat Razor, Premium Quality Edge Matte Black for Moustache & Beard Shaving, Light Weight Single Blade, Professional Barber, Travel Pouch Included

I don't often write reviews but I was so impressed with this that I thought I should. I bought this razor as a replacement for a different model straight shavette. What a difference! The first model was a different design and was incredibly difficult to use. I cut my face to shreds.This is perfect. Well made with a nice weight and feel. The procedure for changing blades is easy and the blades sit securely with 1mm edge exposed. I have used this on multiple occasions and on each occasion have had a brilliantly smooth shave without any nicks, cuts or scrapes. I highly recommend this product

The Tecto Straight Cut Throat Razor is an exceptional choice for a clean and precise shave. Its premium quality and sleek matte black design add a touch of elegance to my grooming routine. Whether it's for shaping my moustache or achieving a smooth shave, this razor delivers outstanding results. Highly recommended for those seeking a professional and stylish razor!

Not wanting to be a slave to the Gillette corporation anymore I thought I would buy a cutthroat razor. This one looked good so I thought why not - ordered a set of blades and waited.The razor arrived and it is good quality and has a nice weight. As I was putting in the blade my wife was, discretely, checking our life insurance policy to ensure death by misadventure was covered.Anyway, I wander to the bathroom, apply shaving cream and it dawns on me I have no idea what I am doing. So quick Google and watch a video - hold at 35 degrees to face, 1cm strokes and such.With a great deal of care I do the first cm of sideburn, then the next and next. Looks good. No blood. I think to myself "This isn't hard at all old chap". At this point I forget what I am doing and drag the blade across my face too fast and at a much steeper angle. It's like hitting speed bumps. Suddenly there is blood, it makes me jump and I end up cutting my face again - only half a dozen little niks but still it has mixed with the water and I look like I have been in a machete fight. Then to add insult to injury I cleaned the blade and wiped off the soap using my thumb and sliced that open for good measure. I finished my shave off slowly with a few more cuts. I have never been so careful in my life.I dont think I can manscape with this product.An added warning- using aftershave on my face afterwards produced some very loud and blue language. It was like awesome smelling fire. Hugo Boss Burn - for manly men!Still - brilliant product and I will get it right eventually.

Very good product

I use this to shave my head bald. The product is light and easy to use. I like the fact where you place the blade and the clasp you use to secure it is small enough so I have no issue cutting around my ears which I found difficult with those razors.Only slight drawback is with the clasp being smaller and less thick it’s sometimes harder to open when it’s time to switch blades. Which could be quite dangerous, however once you get the knack for it should be fine.I would recommend it, I also like the holder it comes with although it is a tight fight.

I got into the whole straight razor thing after realising how much money I'm wasting on multi blade saftey razors. I mean seriously, why would I need to spend £15 on a pack of 5 x 5 blade razor heads when I can spend £2.50 on a pack of 20 razor blades - where 1 blade can last me 3 weeks compared to the 4 weeks per razor head!But it is hard to use and when first using this, I did cut myself a lot. It takes practice and patience, but in the end, you can actually get a much more efficient and effective shave from using this compared to razor heads. I would expect the handle to last a very long time as well instead of the handle changing every so often because Gillette decided that they wouldn't support the former model anymore!Really, if you're interested in saving money (and you can save a lot) as well as wanting to improve your hand-eye cooordination and learn a new skill, you should consider getting this!

The weight and feel - all stainless steel hopefully - should be great for shaving and give good longevity.Matt black finish alleviates 'blade slide' when changing blades.A good buy.

Had to show my ID for this delivery of this product even though it doesn’t come with any razor blades. Have to pay £5 delivery charge with blades as well as the £5 for this product. Disappointed. However the product design is very neat and smart.
