What is the weight and length of this razor? Is this the same as the Razorock Jaws safety razor?

The razor pictured has a 3-piece, vs the butterfly twist to open of the Razorock Jaws razor. I have both, a butterfly and a 3-piece, Edwin Jagger DE89Lbl. Razors are aggressive to gentle, and what you require or prefer will depend on your skin, whisker toughness, lather and blade. The best you can do is try a few and see what you are happiest with. Aggressiveness depends on how much blade is exposed after closing the razor or tightening the head. Also, the blade As much as I'd like to tell folks I have a barbed wire beard, the reality is I prefer my Edwin Jagger's more gently configuration. A good Q & A can be found at the Badger and Blade website. Good luck.

I don't know how this compares to the Razorback, but it has a good solid weight to it. It isn't so heavy to be a problem but feels fine and does an excellent job!

Handle is 4" long and 7/16" dia. Overall razor length (head unit plus handle is 4-1/2" long. I wish the twist ring was on the bottom instead of the top under the head unit. I always try to open the razor by twisting the bottom. Otherwise I love this razor.

I would think so. Look at the razor and does it resemble your old one. I think it's a rather generic size.

Its a heavier razor and very precise, it will be your last razor, I wouldn't use it without a mirror.

Very nice razor. It is small in size keep that in mind you might want a longer handled one if you have big hands though I have No problem. Also this is one that you take apart to change blades like the original. That is a plus though since it stays much cleaner.

I am not really sure to the correct answer of the RPM's. I will say that I am very dissapointed with this razor! It cuts poorly, requiring several passes over the same area before it is shaven. Some areas of my face it completely cannot cut. I find myself having to go over my face with a regular blade razor to get a clean close shave. I did however, get the razor at a very good price, which causes me to wonder if I got a imitation knockoff, or a referbished model.

This is a safety bar razor. This was my second DE razor and first time using a feather blade. This razor and blade combination left my face feeling slightly irritated.

I had to look up the simplest definition of a safety razor - "A safety razor is a shaving implement with a protective device positioned between the edge of the blade and the skin." It is a razor sandwiched between the stem and a top smooth metal part holding it very tightly. Screw down approach. The razor itself is very thin and needs to be replace (easily) every so often. the protective part of it is the top smooth metal casing that holds the razor down. So I guess in the simplest definition, it is a safety razor.

Yes, the handle is 3". The razor's overall length is 3 and 1/4 inches. It is compact and heavy. If you want a razor that you can wrap all of your fingers around to get an easy solid grip, this isn't it. You can expect to only fit a thumb and two fingers on it when shaving.

Just tried it this morning myself with this exact set. I experienced that a safety razor is best for the face but a bumpy ride on the head. It doesn't have any give or joints and is in contact with the skin that is attached directly to the bone. You don't get good results fast. For that matter, I will stick to a Mach3 for the skull. On that note, I also tried a Shave Club "Lover" recently which peeled off some skin here and there, because with 4 blades it's too large. - Wouldn't recommend that either.

It has a standard Braun cutting head and foil, but as I mention in my review, it's a smaller surface than on something like the 7,000 series. So when shaving with it (especially if you have a "heavy" beard) it will take a bit longer, but it is definitely a good quality Braun razor - just smaller (excellently set up for travel).

I have no information that tell what type of battery this razor has. I figure with what I paid for it and what rechargeable batteries cost, it would be better to buy a new razor if this one fails. Sorry I could not help you. The razor works very well.

I think like 220lbs. Same as Razor A5. I consequently returned my Cityglide and got Razor A5. Built & Finish is much better.

I have no idea and don't care. A fastener on my metal razor broke and left me with a large supply of blades. Fortunately I had a plastic one in my Dopp Kit. I looked for a replacement in the stores to know avail. Found this one on Amazon, but it had to be part of a larger purchase. To me this is the best razor Gilette ever made. Tossed my mach 3 When I ran out of blades. I have a supply of sensor blades purchased on clearance that should last longer than 3 years. By the way, the plastic razor I purchased is heavier than the plastic one that was in my Dopp Kit.

No, altho there would be no point. If your interested in shaving with a bare blade a straight razor would be what your want. But back to the question the guards on all safety razors are part of the mold. If you are interested in a safety razor the closest thing to no guard is an adjustable razor.

Approximately 3.5 inches. It is a very good razor. I am surprised by its performance.

I'd say more like razor blade. Don't know but works great! I wish I had found it years ago.
