Razorock sells a DE1 and a Teck II, very similar razors with different handles.Oh,This may be my mistake.
But,also Connaught says,this is "DE2" RazoRock Safety Razors - https://connaughtshaving.com/rrrazors.html
Unless I’m mistaken, the Van Der Hagen from Target and WM is a Baili too. I have one I plan to gift to a friend who wants to try DE shaving.
I have the same razor (1952 IIRC) and it is excellent. Didn’t pay more than $10 for it earlier this summer at an antique shop and it is in great shape.I have been lurking here for a while, and kind of agree with someone who posted earlier that with all the used Tech razors so plentiful, and inexpensive, why buy a clone?
My first Gillette was a new old stock Travel, which in spite of the short handle gave a good shave. Good enough that I figured it would be even better with a full length handle, and I found a nice example on Ebay for a whopping $10.00 including the original box. When it arrived I gave it a quick cleaning with Dawn detergent, and was thrilled to find a perfect chrome finish with zero scratches or corrosion.
My Tech has parallel slots and no date codes indicating it was built between 1947 & 1950. The original owner probably used it for a short time, put it back in the box and forgot about it.
This morning I loaded a Gillette 7 o'clock blade from India that came in a sample package, and did my first shave with the new Tech, which shaved as well as any other razor or blade combination I have used.
The Tech has a nice weight, neither too light or too heavy, a handle that doesn't slip in wet hands, and a head small enough to easily maneuver under the nose. Overall what more do you need in a razor or blade?

For fun thats why lol. I proly prefer the triangle slot but I really like both. And the fat handle is just perfect to me.For those who think all the good deals on vintage Gillette Tech, and other razors are gone, have a look at my latest accusation, which just arrived in the mail today.
Having recently picked up an almost mint Tech in the original box off Ebay and really liking it, I wondered how I would like the same razor with a fat handle. I guess I lucked out again finding a nice gold plated fat handle Tech with very good plating on an Ebay make offer listing. It ended up costing me $7.00 plus a little shipping.
A little brushing with Dawn soap and the gold plating really sparkled. Like my other Tech, this was from the post war 40s with oval slots and no date codes.
I repeat….with deals like this why spend money on a clone? View attachment 1186204View attachment 1186205
