Butterfly Double Edge Safety Razor Rustproof Reusable Manual Stainless Steel DE Wet Shaving for Men Women with Mirrored Travel Case Silver BD179C

For most of my adult life I have used disposable razors, usually of the two-blade type. I can't understand why I didn't think before of going back to the more traditional type of razor. I ordered two, a black one for home use and a chrome one for going away. Both are superb and give me a close and comfortable shave. They are slightly different in how you fit the blades (and this threw me at first). The black one opens by twisting the end of the handle, while the other one needs to have the head unscrewed to put the blade in. Both are easy to do. The little carrying box with mirror is useful and takes spare blades. As I have stated, a lovely razor and highly recommended. Great value.

This razor works out far more cost effective than using disposable ones. This was the main reason I purchased this product. The handle you keep forever and you just buy a pack of 100 double sided blades seperately for about £5. What I love most about this razor, is I get the closest shave ever. My skin has never felt so smooth. Normally i have to go over my skin at least twice to get smooth skin, but this one its just once. As a first time safety razor user, it was slightly tricky to use to begin with. This razor is heavy which takes time to get used to holding. I kept thinking i was going to drop it, as the handle is small also. But I adapted to it quickly. It also takes a while to get used to using it at the correct angle. When you have the correct angle, you wont accidently nick yourself. I did a few times to begin with, but after researching how to use it properly, i dont have this problem at all anymore. Its super easy to switch the razor blades. I have the razor with the butterfly top, and it makes it much more safer to switch blades. I chose the copper colour, it is so stunning. Its like a vibrant rose gold, very feminine. Overrall this razor is very high quality and I will never go back to disposable ones!

This BAILI razor looks and feels high quality — very sturdy with a sleek finish. The mirrored travel case is a nice bonus. It gives a smooth, close shave, though there’s a bit of a learning curve if you’re new to safety razors. My only gripe is the handle can get a little slippery when wet. Otherwise, great value and definitely a solid step up from disposables.

I gave up cartridge razors years ago. I just don't see why 5 blades in one cart does anything other than cost more and create more drag when In use. I moved to old fashioned double sided blade style and immediately loved it. Since then over the last 15 years , I have owned many top brand units in this style. Until now my favourite was still a black plastic double head type from a well known sword manufacturer and was actually fairly cheap. I gave up buying chromed fancy looking and expensive jobs when none of them were as good. I came to the conclusion it was always about the size, the weight and the amount of blade exposed which is where my old faithful always had me going back. I decided to give this one a go as I always wanted the butterfly mechanism and a nice looking chromed finish and unlike the many others I have wasted lots of cash on, this one was short handled and I figured that might be the clincher. I was right, short handle is definitely the way to go. It makes it so easy to move around and keep close control. The weight saving is also hugely noticable. Why do you think lady razors are always lightweight and stubby? Because it makes the unit feel like it's more an extension of your hand and less of a cumbersome tool. In addition I was hugely surprised at how smooth this razor is. I suspect they have got the radius of the head just right and the blade exposed perfect to do the job. I always accepted a few Knicks here and there due to the nature of the beast, but genuinely this razor has totally eliminated that, honestly I can't believe how sharp the blade seems to be just by being in a different unit. Overall, If you are on the fence you won't be disappointed. Stop paying double digits for half a dozen carts, and buy 100+ blades for under double digits and enjoy something that was always good and never really needed re-inventing.

I have been using a single blade shave for yrs. I tried all types of blades trying to avoid cuts, nicks and razor rash. I bought this because I like the butterfly design. On trying this with a good blade I shaved a totally clean nick free shave. Impressed, it must be because of the angle of the blades. Extremely good, would recommend.

INicely made but seemed a very aggressive shave, I found it difficult to use without nicks. I use the same blades in my Muhle razor which is fine, but I wanted a butterfly razor for ease of changing blades. Unfortunately, not for me.

Very gd item

Bought the Butterfly version. This surprised me. Have tried handles from Edwin jagger, Parker, Muhle, Merkul, and eventually settled on a (much more expensive, but absolutely fantastic) Henson. I've tried open combs, slna t bars, everything there is. I can't speak for consistency between units, or longevity, but I've been reaching for this as often as I go for the Henson - though it's a fraction of the price and comes with a travel case. Thr case has space to store blades, but if you're flying it'll almost certainly have to go in checked/hold luggage. Anyone getting into DE shaving will need to prepare themselves for the fun of finding blades/soap/creme etc. that work for them, but I found this to be a gentle enough shave that I can and have recommended it to friends, while providing a really pretty close shave. In its case it takes up less space than a pack of cards, and of course it has the benefit of only swapping out the blade and reusing the handle - like all DE razors - so less waste. Also, the butterfly action... Just feels really cool. I was really positively surprised by this.
