How It works.

MARS razor.

3D printed razors are a great idea. A good quality plastic razor should easily last a lifetime and no problems with corrosion. It surprises me there are not many options available.

MARS razor.

Funny.

No specs on the web site.
YouTube videos of AC razor, only as prototype.
No file, and product page has just one color and no idea of the polymer.
On YouTube info there's something about Multi Jet Fusion and nylon.
And a private FB group where could be more info and pics.
No links, no contacts, nothing to have an idea before buying.
Just a FB profile of Rob Burns.

Do you have the MARS razor?

People see plastic ... not hi-tech polymers.
And, mostly avarage Joe loves hefty tools.
SS is mainly the magic word.

I think it's really that there isn't much money to be made there - inexpensive materials mean low profit margins and the necessity to mass produce.
People are also trying to get their use of plastic down if they can these days.
So it's mostly down to hobbyist designs, outside of the few produced by Gillette and a few manufacturers based in China.

My thoughts on the MARS: https://www.theshavingroom.co.uk/co..._nodes]=1&c[nodes][0]=14&c[users]=pjgh&o=date

I had the first generation. The second generation is the one you can buy today which revised the head and provided the half-DE or injector baseplates.

On balance, I thought it was really good!

There is Mutiny Shaving in the UK. I particularly like the sound, and look of the Sea Waste razor. Using recycled and discarded fishing nets. Link.

Actually, not.

What about the plates? Have you got specs?
I mean, gap / exposure of each one.
If not, what is you fav? And why?
TIA.

EDIT
I've asked the designer via FB Messenger.
At the moment, no answer.
Have you got his email?

I have a MARS. You might call them Plates, but they are more like spacers. There are 10, marked 1 to 10. No. 1 is too mild, no. 10 is too aggressive. Somewhere in the middle is right for you. It is a single edge razor.
The shave is great. You can get a close shave without cuts or scraping the face. It reminds me of a plastic throwaway razor in use, but the shave is better, and the running cost is £3 for 100 single edge blades.
