Hi Sconehead,Good luck with the new venture. It's good to see a DE razor maker in the UK, although I no longer use this type of razor very often. If you ever develop an AC-type razor, however, I would be delighted to act as a product tester.
It doesn't, not Tatara style. There's a recess that matches the outer diameter handpe on the inside, kind of like e.g. Colibri has.Speaking of ... tha handle goes in the head (Blackland or Tatara style)?
Hi Ischiapp,@Reggie’s Razors
Congrats. Nicely curved head design.
What is the exposure of the .60 gap?
I feel that having this spec too (and a picture with blade loaded) on product page can help.
Maybe also pics of the three parts alone, showing up- and downside.
Speaking of ... tha handle goes in the head (Blackland or Tatara style)?
Perhaps 0.03mm? 0.3mm would be very keen... (but I'm not a professional in any sense so I'm probably wrong...)The exposure is around 0.3mm so still on the mild side but maybe leaning towards the medium feel.
Very keen, indeed. For sure, not in the mild range. I hope you're right.Perhaps 0.03mm? 0.3mm would be very keen... (but I'm not a professional in any sense so I'm probably wrong...)
I've had the Weidi and PIFed it, as I found the range of angles where the blade would cut just impractically narrow for my motor skills.I received my Mars. It looked identical to the Weidi I have. Same design handle, same design of blade tabs enclosure.
When I took the razors apart they were different inside. The Weidi is so mild as to be almost ineffective. The Mars is on the mild side, but gives a better shave. The Weidi is the second mildest I own. The mildest is the Mellon - you have to check if there's a blade inside.
The Weidi is on the right, the one with the thicker handle.
The Internal differences can be seen in the next photo.
Again, Weidi on the right.
The Mars is alright. I'm not sorry I bought it.
I had no problem with either of them. They look like they were made on the same machine.@Ebberman
I think I found the handle on the Weidi to be OK - not great, but quite usable.
How do you find the handle on the Mars?
Hi Ben,I’ve just tried the Mars that was very kindly provided as part of a PIF by Johnny Bravo (Martin)
No, my apologies Mark.Hi Ben,
I am really pleased you enjoyed the razor, I thought it was a great razor for the price as well.
Just a quick FYI, my name is not Martin (unless I owe you money) but have been called a lot worse especially by the wife lol.
@Bob - The Mars is £16.At £190 it is out of my price range, I'm sure it will prove to be a success tho, good luck.
