It seems my Golf (Feintechnik) has two different sides, one more agressive, one more mild. Are there any other razors like this? It may be a production error, but it works great for me 
Razors with different sides?

Sounds like a defect.
can you see a difference? There are rasors with a "hard side" and a "soft side" like this one:
On my Parker 90r, the blade is a little more exposed in one side than the other.
At first I was wondering why till I noticed that my neck's skin is a lot more sensible than my face.
So I use the softer side on the neck and the agressive side on the face.

On the slant and the Parker 22R you can shift the blade slightly to center it, otherwise it is asymmetrical and shaves differently. In Gillettes I've used the blade is properly centered - if it isn't, the razor has probably been dropped and bent slightly.

That is what I have too. And I see it makes sense.
I noticed the same thing with my Parker 90R, but only after reading comments by others here a while ago. I can see the difference, but I can't really feel it when I shave. It's not my favorite razor, but it works pretty well.
I have a german made open comb that has short teeth on one side and longer on the other.
I have a "Made in Canada" Gillette razor with the same feature. There was a discussion about it here a couple of months ago, but no consensus on what it was. Perhaps a prototype.

+1 I had a 90r that had the same thing.
