I am guessing the RazoRock Teck is a Baili head?

Is this the right oneBR 171
AKA BD176. Model numbers are pretty difficult to parse as they vary with finish, handle and case. "Upgrade head" (covered tabs) is the only thing that matters.Is this the right one

Given how long it will take to receive all of the Clones, November is probably pretty close.I am doing OCtober so this month is dedicated to OCs. I have decided November will be all Techs. I have the typical oval no date, triangle slot, 60s, contract tech, WW2 backalite handle tech and the Silver Star. With the recently ordered Baili, I hope I can contribute something to the thread. This will be something new for me as I have not had many shaves with Techs, just collected them.
So far, what I've seen is all pretty spendy for "cheap" razors. For truly cheap, this can't be beat:

WTG, XTG, selected ATG, plus minor buffing and touch-up.
DFS+. No nicks, cuts, weepers. Minor irritation.
9/10
Off to a good start.
Parameters used for the comparisons:
I want to see how the head shaves and so will use the same handle (Maggard MR11) on each razor under test.
Pre-shave, soap, brush, blade and post-shave (up to the Aftershave and Cologne) will be the same:

Kind of a CCS. One nick, one weeper. Moderate irritation.

Not bad, though, for a couple of bucks.
