Merkur Futur Knock Off

The Maxim 1.0 German engineered. Comes with a supply of Maxim "blades" (Ming Shi). $30. Hmmm.....

looks like the ming shi I picked up for $11.99 when I started wet shaving almost 2 years ago. It's not a bad razor for me at 4 with an Astra loaded but it has been out of the rotation for a while. Since it was the first of many razors, I think the ming shi fell victim to, the next one will be the best one after all.

I have seen the Shave one as well. Have heard decent things about them. The big difference from the review I remember was the Merkur was much better balanced but both delivered good shaves. I forget which one was reviewed.

My Ming Shi 2000s arrived today.
Am I allowed to say it gave me a better shave than the Merkur.

If it did, sure. Everyone is different and gets different results from various products. I get great results from my least expensive razors.

I also found the replica to provide a better shave than the original... It's a a fair bit milder, 4 on the replica is like a 1 on the Merkur.

Yeah
.
I used it at 4..started at 3 dor first pass and then dialed it up to 4..... its lighter to hold and easier to maneuver. ..

Audio feedback was weird..tinny or metallic..but the end result was great
