    Default Marchio Radar

    I just received the razor this weekend. I would say Near Mint/Excellent condition. Smallest amount of plate loss on the underside of the comb. The blade cases and tins are flawless. This razor feels heavier than the New Improved and Big Fellow. I am going to have to find some way to weigh this to know exactly what it weighs. Now for the fun part......the shave








    Thanks for looking.

    WOW!! What a shave! I had a nice 3 day beard and I achieved a DFS/BBS on 2 WTG passes. The third pass was minor touch up. I dont know what to compare this razor to since I havent had a shave like this in my life. I guess the closest razor to compare it to would be the NEW. I think the blade gap is a little more on the Marchio and the bend in the blade is different as well. If you have the chance to buy one I suggest you do.

    That's a real beauty and I'm glad to hear of your great shave! I'll have to keep an eye out for one of these.
