ROMAN EMPIRE SHAVING Mars Straight Razor for Professional Barber with 20 Blades Sampler

This shavette is undoubtedly slick with its mirror-like finish. The razor shank arm seems to be refined into more of a mirror stainless steel than the scale arm. Also noticing the two cutouts relating the original Equinox International brand doesn’t have its original brand relief. The Roman Empire Shaving logo is annealed/burned on, and it’s also not providing the correct width to close properly. Aside from that, when adding a half blade on, the second shank arm closes with precision right utop the posts with the spine cap capable of locking the arms into place. Though careful where the fulcrum point of the spine is because the density of the metal can cause it to bend right away like an aluminum can with ease.Definitely nice to have. Though metallurgic copy to Equinox, it just doesn’t have the third width post reinforcement inside guaranteeing a good close. – Still worth it. Not bad to take with you say you’re going on vacation of sort.

The blades that’s came with it doesn’t align well causing irregular shave, because the two point I’m the middle aren’t aligned well to the other end. maybe I got the defected piece. Does the job,the built quality and packing was great.
