I just picked up a Totai SE razor, made in Germany under the Mandarin brand name, but sold in France as Totai.
Despite it's age (made before WWI), it takes standard SE blades. I haven't shaved with it yet (there are a few razors I want to try first).
Here is an old thread on the Mandarin. Mine looks exactly like this, except it is in fairly rough shape (still perfectly serviceable).

Anyone here use a Mandarin / Totai?
