Edwin Jagger DE89BL Chrome Reusable Classic Double Edge Safety Razor for Men

The Edwin Jagger DE89BL is a fantastic razor! It feels solid and well-balanced in the hand, making shaving precise and comfortable. The chrome finish looks sleek and professional, and it gives a close, smooth shave without irritation. A great investment for anyone wanting a traditional wet-shaving experience.

Update below - Original Review: This is my first Double Edge razor. I was looking for something that was well reviewed and not too pricey. That's how I came to find and ultimately purchase the DE89bl. I purposely did not shave for a few days before the razor arrived. I wanted to see how well it would handle a few days growth. I also might mention that I have sensitive skin, so I am always looking for the least irritating way to shave. I have been through lots of multiblade systems that work OK, but I cringe at the high price of replacement blades. The fit and finish of the razor is flawless. I am really pleased with the heft and quality of it overall. It comes with a starter pack of Derby blades, which by all accounts are a mild blade and good for beginners. I can't offer any perspective about how they compare to other blades, but they worked quite nicely for me. For my first shave with the razor I lathered up with some Taylor of Old Bond Street, Mr. Taylor's Shaving Cream. I used short strokes and rinsed the razor frequently. There's an excellent video on youtube "How to Shave with a Safety Razor" that is worth watching if you are new to DE shaving as I am. The results are really quite amazing. Not only did it handle my thicker than usual growth, the shave was quite easy. A multiblade razor would have required a lot more effort to accomplish the same results. The area under my chin and around my neck have always been the most difficult to achieve a close shave. **Not any more!** This is easily the closest shave I have had short of my barber giving me a straight razor shave. (Which I get with nearly every haircut.) The results: Nice and smooth and the irritation to my skin was minimal. Tomorrow's shave with only one days growth should be that much better. The best part is the $$ saved in the long run. No more budget busting multi-blades for me. DE blades are inexpensive and readily available. The DE89bl should pay for itself in savings in just a few weeks. ******** Updated Review: Having lived with and used this razor for several months, I would still recommend it for anyone looking for a new double edge safety razor. It is fairly forgiving and provides a satisfactory shave. Having said that, I no longer use it daily. It is now one of three DE razors I own. The other two are vintage Gillette's which are still widely available online. I no longer use Derby razor blades in any razor. I tried several brands from a sample pack and found that I get the best performance from Personna Med Prep blades in all three of my razors. Your mileage may vary and I encourage you to try several blades in whichever razor you ultimately buy. Finally, after every shave I still have that feeling of "Wow! That was great! Do other people know about this? Someone has to tell them!"

i decided to take the wasteful, disposable plastic elements out of my life, and was more than ready to eliminate disposable razors. i did some research, and realized i wasn't yet ready for a true straight razor and the almost strict religious upkeep factors of them...i wanted a middle ground. i researched online and through amazon, reading the reviews of a ton of this type before settling on this one. it came, and my face and i are extremely pleased. right off the bat, the heft and quality show how well made it is. i'm a gadget man, and i love how things work- so opening the razor to replace blades is more fun and fascination than a chore. i'm amazed the solution to a great shave can be so simple. the metal is all heavy, solid (steel?) with a thick, smooth chrome finish you don't see on anything anymore. this isn't going to flake off or turn color...it has to be at least a millimeter thick or more. or is this what true, good stainless steel is supposed to be like? either way, it's solid. the handle is well made and i don't forsee it falling apart. the handle is thick black plastic, but in that retro way, not cheap and modern. i do wish the handle was just a LITTLE longer, but that's just because i'm used to the longer handle of disposables. i'm already acclimating to it. why is it not 5 stars? well,the one point that i worry may fail in the future is the razor head screwing into the handle, with the razor bed resting between them. it 's only friction-held, nothing snaps or locks in, and the parts are so well chromed, friction is achieved by tightening the heck out of it all- which i fear may strip the threading one day. but maybe that's just me being used to cheap products- in all other ways, this razor seems built to last- the kind of thing that if we'd gone to atomic war decades ago, this would have been pulled out of the rubble and used by a scruffy-faced survivor. it's that retro, well made and solid. oh and the shave! well, i'll let you discover that for yourself. you will want to have a bonfire for your old shavers- disposable, or electric. this is the only blade i've used that actually gets the hard to cut hair just below the jawline. if that's not worth $30, what is?

le edwin jaggerd89 considéré par beaucoup comme étant l'un des meilleurs rasoir de sureté d'entrée de gamme pour un prix de 25$ je dois dire qu'il est vraiment bien. _Le rasage est impeccable, la prise en main est agréable. En termes de vitesse de rasage, c'est vraiment très rapide, beaucoup plus qu'un rasoir jetable à cause de la qualité du tranchant de la lame dont on a un vaste choix. Pour les débutants on prend vite le coup de main rien de compliqué. _Niveau défauts, je dirais que la texture du manche est trop lisse : ça glisse, le manche n'est pas assez ferme quand il est en contact avec de l'eau. un autre truc a préciser c'est qu'il est vendu sans aucune lame, donc prévoir un achat de pack de lames au préalable. en conclusion: excellente porte d'entrée je ne vois pas d'intérêt dans le rasoir jetable, le rasoir de sureté c'est plus rapide, efficace, et économique.

Efsane, yüzüm çok hassas, özellikle gırtlak altı her tıraştan sonra 5-6 yerden kanıyordu, taraklı pearl marka bı tıraş makinesi kullanıyordum, taraklı makinelerin en büyük özelliği aralıklı tıraşa Uygun olması,ama 8-9 günlük sakalı bile zor alıyordu,bu makine taraksız olmasına rağmen 5-6 günlük sakalda hiç tıkanmadı, gırtlak altı tertemiz yüzü hassas kişilere tavsiye ederim

Great product. Very premium.

L'ho acquistato da regalare a mio figlio che lo voleva come regalo di Natale, mi è sembrato di ottima qualità ma io sono una donna ed il mio giudizio poco conta, mio figlio però ne è entusiasta, facile da usare anche per i principianti (con le dovute accortezze, sempre un rasoio è), abbastanza pesante con il gambo goffrato quindi difficile che scivoli anche con le mani bagnate, facile da montare/smontare la lama, costruito con un ottimo acciaio, per lui sono 10 stelle!

La boîte du rasoir est arrivée abîmée et je n'ai trouvé aucune lame de rasoir dans le colis comme stipulé dans la description du produit ("Le rasoir est livré avec une boîte de 5 lames de rasoir Derby")....
