    Is this a good razor? Think my dad had one when I was small.

    Is that the black plastic one? It's the only Wilkinson Sword DE that comes to mind.

    It should be perfectly fine to start DE shaving with.

    That was my first DE razor. It does the trick, and it's nice and affordable, but there isn't much weight to it!

    I know at one point they had a lump of metal in the handle of the razor to give it some weight. Not sure if they still make them like that though.

    I have one and it is heavy enough. I've not tried the blades that came with it yet but for €6 it's a great value set.
