Razor Revolution: returning to the Single blade days
Through two world wars, cultural revolutions, and moon landings, Safety Razors provided amazing shaves for millions of men and women. What happened?

In the 1970's, American razor manufacturers and Mad Men agencies realized their fortunes were with mediocre plastic disposable razors. The humble Safety Razor was replaced by two, three, four, five and six blade behemoths and electric monsters.
RetroRazor is returning the daily shave ritual to the single blade.

RetroRazor specializes in Razors and Blades for the new shaver; These will yield the greatest change in our Ecological and Economic footprint.

RetroRazor is for adults 18+

Length:: 1:11 Mins

The Butterfly Twist to Open Mechanism in Action! This is a very slick razor - classic styling with enough heft to remind you that it is Old School Shaving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Back to DE, safe and close shave, July 12, 2008
This review is from: RetroRazor Weishi Double Edge Safety Razor Starter Kit + 15 Blade Sampler + Free Shipping (Health and Beauty)
20 years ago when I started to shave I used double edge blades. In the 90's, I started to stress shave using cartridge razors. I never really liked those cartridge razors. A shave from a Gilette Fusion or Wilkinson Xtreme was never as close as I wanted it to be. Blades were expensive and not durable. Shaving was not fun anymore.

A couple of weeks ago I decided to go back to good old DE. I bought Weishi razor, some Feather blades and Taylor of Old Bond Street Shaving Cream and got pleasently surprised. Shaving with this Weishi razor was ure joy. The razor is not overly agressive but with ultra sharp Feather blades I could achieve very close shave, much closer than with any cartridge blades I've ever tested. This is a highly recommended product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insane shave!, April 12, 2008
This review is from: RetroRazor Weishi Double Edge Safety Razor Starter Kit + 15 Blade Sampler + Free Shipping (Health and Beauty)
I just bought this one after reading about wet shaving in ReadyMade Magazine. In addition i bought a shaving brush and a shaving soap bar from Herban Cowboy. I just got the best shave of my life. It's so gentle and i had NO razor burns for the first time in my life! I can't believe that Gilette has a total hold on the market with those useless triple blades. Old school wet shaving is the way to go!
