ZOMCHI Safety Razor for Men with 5 Double Edge Safety Razor Blades, One Blade Safety Razor, Metal Razor Zero Waste – Black

I’m really impressed with the ZOMCHI Safety Razor! It has a sturdy, well-balanced design that feels great in hand, and the quality is top-notch. The included double-edge blades are sharp and provide a close, smooth shave without irritation.

I’ve tried three different brands of safety razors (including this one) and 4 years later I’m buying a second to leave at my shore house. My original safety razor from a zero waste store but dangerously sharp and the one I’m replacing this with is still pretty sharp and heavy. After a weekend away with my other brand razor, I have too many nicks to count.How does this one stand out?It’s like and doesn’t slipEasy to replace the bladesGives me an incredible shave with nicks only when I’m rushing.So excited to have two of them!

super smooth, may give slight razor bumps but honestly amazing

Background: I've been using double-edge razors for nearly 15 years, and have easily tried more than 60 products available (or once available) on the market, from inexpensive plastic imports to $200+ super razors (or at least advertised as such). These days, I've more or less standardized my 3-pass approach on mild or medium razors, generally opting for a Feather blade (the Porsche of blades in my experience) to maximize efficiency and performance. Picking the Zomchi up on a lark, its sweet design caught my eye. It has side blade protection (nice), good weight, and also - as I noticed - a good deal of blade exposure and gap, indicating that it would seem to fit under the "aggressive" category.Popping in a Nacet blade (my second choice to Feather, and also my choice for new razors), I could tell the shave was immediately efficient and aggressive - 4 days of whiskers disappeared with no sound or feeling, but I did carve off a skin bump and also ended up with some weepers (after rarity for me these days) trying to perform my regular 3-pass shave. Nevertheless, the shave itself was so efficient that I contemplated my next shave - 3 days later, a face full of hard growth, and this time I went for a 2-pass shave with only touch-ups. MUCH better - just as smooth as the 3-pass version, but only one weeper and just minor irritation in one area on my neck that often needs buffing to get clean. I also noted that my "against the grain" shave on my mustache area - which usually requires both a WTG and XTG pass or I'll experience weepers - didn't require the XTG this time. That's a first for any razor I've owned, including the incredibly efficient iKON Tek and Muhle R41 razors (the earlier versions of the R41). It's possible I'm just getting better at face prep and lather than I was years ago, so I'll have to go back to those razors and see if I can replicate the outcome.I'll likely transition back to Feather (and probably try their provided DE blades too), but this is clearly a very well made, efficient tool that does benefit from a bit of a deft hand (experience) to ensure you maximize performance vs. safety. If you're new to DE shaving, keep a light touch - "like shaving a balloon" - and ensure you have a good, wet, slick lather that provides the needed lubrication. This is an absolute bargain IMO and I'll enjoy having it in my rotation.

Great quality product. Never need to buy another razor again, as long as you purchase additional blades. Purchased in 2020 and have used it ever since. Dry after each use to prevent rust on blades. Has a nice weight to it that takes some getting used to if you only used disposable razors before. Cost effective and worth it!

The one blade is great, but it does not stand out like crazy. The good thing, though, is that it comes with 6 extra blades. Besides that, it is decent and doesn't expect one brush to get all the hairs. It takes several times, but it gets the job done.

Very good shave I can comfortably hold the shaver. The color choices are awesome. I got the pinkish shaver

I really like this razor. I shaved my legs once but had goose bumps so it shredded my legs 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’ve shaved my under arms and bikini area with no issues. I love the little stand for it. It looks good sitting on the shelf in my shower. It’s a little on the heavy side so make sure you have it comfortably in your hand before shaving. The “diamond” cuts on the handle is enough for it to not slip around in your hand.
