Hey all, thought I'd take a moment to show off my Weck SE safety razor. Made by the same company that makes the Weck Sextoblade shavette, and it takes the same blades. For those in the know, these blades are like GEM SE blades, but they a wider (see below) so that makes this a really wide razor. It's a beast to look at.
The shave from this razor is spectacular. The Personna hair shaper blades are great, so getting a BBS is failry easy. This razor does have it's hangups though. It's size makes it quite cumbersome around the neck, chin, and especially the upper lip area. XTG clears that up easily though.
I think these are pretty rare, as I've only ever seen a couple of them. But if you are a fan of the Weck shavettes, it might be worth searching for. You've already got the blades for it, after all.
The blade is loaded in a similar fashion to an injector, but you just push it in manually.
Here is is with a Gillette NEW for size comparison.
