DSCosmetic Z.0 v2...buy the head by itself and you'll get version 2. It's a stainless steel clone of the original Muhle R41.
I just ordered one of those heads thru Amazon for the heck of it. How is it? V2 so not super aggressive?
I have the Baili BD176 which you might like if you prefer a mild razor. I believe it is a Gillette Tech clone and does provide a mild but close shave with sharper blades. I have done a few shaves with it, with notes here if you're interested.
Oh...it's aggressive. I really learned to use it and love it. Paired with a TiBam Titanium handle. One of my favorite razors.
You ordered it through Amazon? I got mine through AliExpress.
DSCosmetic D8, very similar to GC84.
Actually, I'm mistaken. I ordered the R41 clone head thru Amazon. I now realize you got a whole razor thru Aliexpress. My error. Sorry.
S'ok. Was kinda hoping you were right and DSCosmetic had a strong presence on Amazon. I bought only the head through AliExpress...fortunately they offer it with a handle or without. Obviously, without a handle is cheaper. Good razor! R41 is a kind of an anomaly razor in the shaving world...odd configuration, but it provides a really close shave.

My R41 clone is out for delivery. FYI 16 days from China to Albuquerque. Not bad. I'll use it tomorrow and let you know.
Is it the DSCosemetic Z0 stainless steel one?
If you don't mind an aggressive razor the Yaqi slant head is cheap but shaves really good for me with a steep angle. I used it as a daily driver for almost 2 weeks with a Nacet, GSB with no irritation what so ever.
Is that available through AliExpress?
Yes mate it is just go to the Yaqi store
DScosmetics X2! Great razor
Could you tell me some of its characteristics and why it's great?
Absolutely. The X2 has a .68 gap and is inspired (I don't think it is a 100% clone) of the Game Changer .68.
I currently own four Razorock Game Changers : 68p solid bar, 68 Jaws, 84p solid bar, 84 Jaws) and almost all the handles : HD, Bulldog, Radio, Barber pole (old and new version), Super knurled and used to have a UFO.
The destroyer handle is incredible and the razor doesn't just look great with the scalloped top cap but shaves fantastically.
The only negative is under the top cap the finishing marks are not the best... The rest of the razor has a polished finish that is better than the Razorocks
