None are good. They either clog, are a pain to clean, and most are incredibly expensive in the long run. A few years ago I switched to a double-edge safety razor. I switched because of cost, and that research shows that the double-edge is easier to clean and gives a better shave. I absolutely love the double-edge razor, and a nice, close, smooth shave. In the interest of getting an even closer shave, I started researching the straight razor. It's the closest shave possible, plus there is the cool, nostalgia factor. That, and I get to brag that I'm a fearless, death-defying manly man. Alright, I'm not really into bragging but I hope I gave you a chuckle. I just love the old ways, and a simple life. I've read many of the reviews on this product. The main complaints seem to be rust, the blades, and balance. Here are my observations. Rust. Pretty much a no-brainer. Clean it after use. Remove the blade carefully, rinse and dry everything with tissue, and let it air dry for a while. Rub it with mineral oil once in a while and you should be good. Respect this thing! Don't get cocky! Don't leave it or the blades where kids can get them! Don't handle the edge of the blade. I've never cut myself handling these or double-edge blades. Use your head! Go slow. Balance. Yes, it could be better. It's not horrible, just pay attention and go slow. Pay attention to the angle, and use basically NO PRESSURE. Let the weight of the razor do the work. The blades. They're very sharp and do a good job. They're not my favorites, Astra blades are my favorite, they just work for me. I'm hoping I can split the Astras and use them, but if that doesn't work the Derbys are fine. In the end, my first shave with a straight edge was very cool and I got a good shave. I was very patient, used a very soft touch, kept my skin lubricated and pulled tight. I did get one small cut and a couple small nicks, but no worse than my initial transition to the double-edge. I'd recommend buying the cheap Chinese copy of the Mercur adjustable double-edge razor which is available on desertcart. Start with it closed to the most narrow. Use the double-edge, opening it wider and wider as your skills improve. When you can shave with it wide open you'll be very close to the straight edge experience because so much of the blade will be exposed. When you master that, transition to the straight edge. You will already have the light touch and angle required for the straight edge. Be patient. You are a man, and you will develop the skills in time. Relax. You've got nothing to prove to anyone. I hope this helps. God bless. Review: Honest Opinion as a Beginner. - Disclaimer: I am not receiving compensation for my review, and I am writing this review after two uses. I have never before used a straight edge razor or a shavette. I am a mixed race male, so my hair is a mixture of course and soft. Opinion: I received my item today and almost instantly got to using it. I used a shave gel called Precision Shave Gel by Van Der Hagen, and a bit of warm water. I started by shaping up my eyebrows. This includes the nooks between the bridge of the nose and the inner portions of the eyebrow. I moved on from doing so to shave the hair on top of my nose. I didn't cut myself throughout this time. I wiped the blade off with a cloth and left it in place as I knew I was going to use it again in the day. Later, I used the same blade from before, and the same gel to shave my sideburns and jawline. I did end up cutting both jaws in the corners, but I'd believe this was user error and they were also very minor cuts that didn't hurt. Overall, for as many reviews as I read, I expected that my first time using a straight edge/shavette would end with a lot of cuts and scratches, and reviews on this specific item led me to believe this was a dangerous one in particular. I don't find that to be the case, and I believe a user properly shaving will have no issues. Shave gel is absolutely necessary, and being a bit cautious with the blade as well. Pros: Solid, easy to use design. Decently light, not a lot of weight to it. Comes with 100 razor blades. The blade did not wiggle in place for me, and my razor was also well aligned. Cons: Blade can be a bit hard to take out without cutting yourself if you aren't cautious. Found the best way to take it out was by releasing the clamp, sticking your fingernail in the very edge piece with a lip(above the blade, at the top of the razor) and separating it from there. All in all: I think this is a great budget shavette(it's not a straight edge since it has disposable blades) that will last if taken care of. I also think that the user of course must be cautious, and should never shave without shave gel. Male or female. If you have the money, buy a DOVO, but if you're like me and you had to settle, this is a pretty good option to do so with. I didn't see any issue with blade sharpness, mine proved effective on my course sideburns without issue. If you want it to last without rust, take the blade out each time, and dry all areas including between the two blade holders with a dry cloth. I think this is a good blade that will get the job done be it shaving your head, face, dermaplaning, or shaping up your eyebrows. My only complaint was that taking the blade out can he difficult without cutting yourself, but even my first time using it I didn't cut myself taking it out. I would rate this item at about a 4.7-4.8 simply because of that, but for simplicity I will give this item 5 stars. Also arrived in two days. ## Features - Experience the unparalleled precision and control of Equinox's professional straight edge razors men, ensuring a close and comfortable shave every time - Unleash your inner barber with our barber razor, crafted with a unique easy-to-open blade guard for safe and effortless blade exchange, making it the perfect tool for both professional and personal use - Our straight razor comes with 100 single edge blade replacements, crafted from high-quality stainless steel for durability and longevity.

Gave 2 stars only coz I liked shaving this way, and I got it after 20 days. ## Frequently Bought Together - Equinox Straight Edge Razor - Includes 100 Single Derby Blades - Professional Manual Shaver - Stainless Straight Razor Steel - Ideal for Close Shaving - Stainless Straight Razor - Level 3 Shaving Gel - Straight Razor Shave Gel - Non-Irritating - Refreshing Smell L3 - No Hot Towel Necessary - Level Three Razor Gel - L3 Level 3 After Shave Spray Cologne - Softens Skin - Refreshes and Relieves Face and Skin - Moisturizing Formula Level Three After Shaving --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/145477483-equinox-straight-edge-razor-includes-100-single-derby-blades-professional](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/145477483-equinox-straight-edge-razor-includes-100-single-derby-blades-professional) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
