While this razor "looks" something like a 10 year old Norelco, it clearly isn't the same type of technology. Kmart had cheap Remington copies of the Norelco for $39 (cheaper non lift n cut heads) last time I checked, and my guess is that these knock offs are much farther down the quality chain.

Don't buy a cheap razor unless you don't like your face. They pull hairs, generally abrade your skin, and often cut you. A new real Norelco should be fast, smooth, and last a decade or more. Look on eB@y for a decent price on a brand new Norelco.

Thats just plain sick. Make sure you don't share your razor with anyone else.

Hey guys, it does say S/H=Shipping and Handling not just shipping. It does cost them something to have someone order the product, package it, oh yea, the cost of the packaging, someone to confirm your order, check your cc number,,,,,all in the cost of handling. Don't rag on them so bad. It does say Shippinh AND Handling. Thanks for the post.

If you have a sensitive face, stay away from a cheap razor like this. It will irritate your face to no end. I had a norelco with lift and cut for a long time and it was ok but it really irritated my face, this thing I doubt is even of that quality and for sensitive skin you'll be irritation city. If your gonna go electric spend the money for a good shaver like the panasonic linear wet/dry shavers. I use it with water. My face is much happier now.
Those lighter torches do look pretty interesting though...

I had 2 Cheap razors, and they broke pretty easy, nonless seems like a good deal for those who don't shave often.

i ordered from these guys.. the navy seal knife in particular.. it's pretty cool.. handle's about 3-3.5 inches, and the blade is about the same.. so it's roughly 6-7 inches... it's cool.. the lapd one (if they still have it) is also cool

it took a while to get to me, but it's "free" so i can't really complain.. things aren't high quality in any aspect, but for the price i dont' think you can beat it

Most cheap razor do just irritate the skin. you don't want something with razor blades in it near your face if it's of questionable quality. I wouldn't want this falling apart on me and ripping chunks out of my skin :p I'll stick with my plain old sensor excel thank you very much.

Hey, I just got the razor, pretty good for 10 bucks! However, I couldn't get the locking switch to work. Does anyone else have the same problem? It doesn't seem to do anything, I can turn it on without touching the little red button.
