Colonel Conk No.930 Double Edge Safety Razor

Great razor at a great price. Incredibly heavy for it's size, well built, and very sturdy. Will last for years if not generations. Nickel finish is very nice, although a little lighter in color than what the Amazon picture shows, but still very attractive. More attractive/unique then the normal chrome razor (IMHO). I get a great shave from this razor and easily recommend it 100%. You also get five Dorco razors with the No. 931 Treat yourself to a new razor, specifically the CC No.931

It shaved well but it does not have much heft. I went back to my old Gillette Fat-boy but I use this for travel.

Even comes in a box labeled as such (nice little travel case for it BTW). After using it about 6 weeks I have to say it is just easy and a pleasure to use this razor. It is a very mild razor, with no fuss the blade aligns strait every time. I have used several types of blades in this razor and the only one that was horrible was the one that it comes with. Throw that one in the trash. Put in any reputable brand of DE and you'll love it. If you like an aggressive razor, this isn't for you. If you are like me and like one that is forgiving and easy, especially early in the morning look no further.

I bought this razor and a shaving soap/brush kit on a whim after becoming tired of the durability and cost of disposable razors. Gents, Schick and Bic have been selling us junk. It is such a pleasure to shave with this razor and old-fashioned soap and brush. It's way more comfortable than any of the new shaving gels or high-tech 4-bladed thingamabobs. Its shave quality is excellent. The mechanism of the razor is strong and well-machined. It cleans up effortlessly and well. It lasts for a dozen shaves with little discernible dropoff in sharpness and the blades are cheap, cheap, cheap. If I could find a good travel soap/brush kit I'd shave with nothing else at home or away.

I don't know if it's the design of the razor or the blades that came with it but each of the four times I used it were among the poorest shaving performances in both experience and results. Each time I prepped my face with very warm properly lathered Colonel Conk's Bay Rum Shaving Soap (I highly recommend) and proceeded to shave. I tried using different angles, different tension adjustments, and different blades from the package provided with the razor. Each time I endured a pulling sensation as the razor tried to shave and ended up with a poorly half shaved face. Following a re-lather and application of my month old GT2 (famous brand 2 blade cartridge) I experienced my usual pull free shave nicely enhanced by the Colonel Cronk soap and a smooth burr patch free face. For reference I have been shaving for at least 42 years. My facial hair is a little less dense than average but the hair is coarse. I gave the second star only because the device appears to be of good quality. The heft was greater than expected but in this case it is a positive. All parts functioned well but I don’t think it was designed to provide a variable blade tension as when I tried to back off a little the adjustment loosened further as it was used. The finish was considerably lighter in color than the picture online. I returned the razor for Amazon credit and will happily return to my GT2 and Colonel Conk shaving soap.

Poor quality, disapponting.

Great razor great price the weight of the razor really does most of the work Have had two that were really low quality. This one is so much better bought dome col. Conk soap Figured I'd give thew razor a try. Great for those new to d.e. shaving.

This razor is decent. I can't set it on the lowest setting and still get a good shave. It is worth the money though. Very sturdy razor.

Love it

Al poco tiempo se desgastó la rosca y ya no funciona. :(

It serves its purpose. I like the colour and the way it opens.
