It came in the mail yesterday with 15 Dorco blades and a cleaning brush, all in a traveling case.
Reputedly the Merkur 180 and Feather Popular are about equally mild, but I find the Merkur a tad less mild and the Feather a tad too mild.
I am hoping the Weishi will be a bit more like the Merkur than the Feather.
This is not a long handled razor, and so is unlike the Popular and 180 in that respect.
We'll see how this goes.
Fact is, the arthritis in my fingers and thumbs makes me a bit unsteady, which is a reason to use a mild razor.
And it's also turning out to be a reason to use a butterfly rather than a 3-piece, it being simpler to change blades.
Update, 9/14.
Mild as the Feather, but heavier.
Nice shave.
I find I prefer the long handle.
Update 9/28.
It turns out there is a long handled version of this Weishi available.
But I doubt I will buy it.
