What a groovy piece of kit!
I love the organic design. It looks a little ‘top heavy’, but (being bamboo) is probably very lightweight and nicely balanced...
I’d have to give it a try.
Great find,

Interesting but think I will stick with my Gillette Fusion 5.

I am a razor collector and I have never seen something like it before. This razor gave me the incentive to buy vintage Asian razors. But I don't know where to find them?
There are these flying eagle models built in Shanghai in the 70's but that's too modern for my collection. I have one though.
Do you guys know where I can some vintage asian razors like Katayam, Hands and other I never heard of? Maybe someone here can
And , Rob, I will be giving it a go, just to see if the new blades which are very thin could be stable inside the razor. Blades at that time were thicker and very rigid. So there was no need for strong pressure from the cap.
