Introducing the Schick Ugly B*#@ard

[DonOhio]

Head wasn't aggressive enough for my taste, and orig. handle was cracked...then I found an old disposable behind the sink. Epoxy + plastidip =

Wife said it cuts well, and the handle is easier to use at length than any other oldie she's tried. I'd PIF it if I thought someone would take it.

(wasn't there a pretty recent Frankenrazor thread? Searched for it but couldn't find it. Deleted?)

Hopefully the thing will stay together when you shave. I don't entirely trust epoxy unless there is a reinforcement pin between the head and handle. Like re-bar in cement.

You're correct about reinforcement; there are various depressions and voids in both that handle as well as the head, so the epoxy sunk into them and set up essentially as it's own rebar (I use pretty high quality stuff). If it can stand up to my wife shaving her loooong legs, it ain't coming apart.
