Weishi differences?

I was looking on Shoebox Shaving recently, and noticed that they had multiple versions of the Weishi razor. They had a regular version, and a more expensive "deluxe" version. Does anyone know what the difference is? Comparing the pictures, it doesn't seem that there are any physical differences, maybe it's just higher build quality rather than design?

I'm pretty sure that the "Deluxe" only has uneven blade exposure on one side, whereas the regular has it on both. :lol:

Really though, for the same price you can get a great vintage Gillette on the BST here, and it will be around longer than most of the people who are currently members of B&B.

I started with a Weishi but now have many Gillettes. Listen to luvmysuper--he knows of what he speaks.

The Weishi is cheaply built, and so mild as to be near useless. Far better choices are available for nearly the same money.
