SHaDE Razor Projects

Thanks, I just wrote what I was told by others when I asked what it stood for 

The way myths and urban legends are born ...


If you grab a Cobbled DE chinese head, and do the work, you'll have a SCHaDE.
Sweet enough, but a bit more effective.

I'm a lazy boy, so I took one from China.





I liked so much, I took the same with light handle asking for the Black Edition.
It perfectly matches with my fav black handle.
And works great!!!

Thanks but I've owned both 2 piece and 3 piece RFB Gillette's and they are as effective as they need to be. I will enjoy this immensely especially after getting it plated.

Wow, I am impressed and so happy for you! The proof of concept Tech was excellent, and this one, replated, will be The Bomb!!
Well Done, Dave

I love my RFBs - they're among the few of the Gillettes that I've kept. Is there anything you were hoping to get out of this other than the fun of experimentation? (Or, to ask it another way, is this something that I need to do?) I'm not big on half-blade razors but perhaps this is an enhancement of some sort.

No need to unless you like the look. For me it was getting another raised flat bottom on the cheap. $20 due to the broken tooth. Since I would only use 1 side it was a perfect candidate. I also don't need to flip the head and know exactly how much use a blade has. No favoring 1 side more than another without realizing. So some advantages but I wouldn't ruin a good DE. Just a good fix for a broken tooth razor.
