Review Yintal Stainless Steel clone of Henson

[Estariol]

Thanks for mentioning, I thought all of them were the same.

Don't mention it, i did it because a fellow shaver from Serbia bought a cheap Henson clone and it turned out to be poorly made, the cap edge in contact with the blade had a slight curve in it, and the blade exposure was uneven on each side.

I had a cheap razor with the same problem. The gap varied along the length of the blade on both sides and you could not get a consistent result with it. It now lives in a landfill somewhere.

First drive and I am very impressed. Excellent construction and close tolerances. The finish is superb, and the shave was mild but DFS close. More to come, but for now, it is an awesome value piece of kit!

Nice!!

I've been using mine for the last month and like it better than my GreenCult 2.0.

I had one and experienced the same problems. I only paid £1.45 for so didn't expect much. Where I did score with it was getting a really good spare SS handle once I sent the head to landfill. I bought the yintal this time and I'm very impressed with the fit and finish. The shaves have been very good with none of the suction feeling I experienced and didn't like with the Henson or Winning razors.

Today I ditched the Yintal blade after 1 use. The FlyDear blades are better, but not as good as a BiC. The Yinson sings like Pavarotti with a sharp blade! I had a 10/10 full 3 pass shave with BBS finish and negligible irritation/ sensitivity.
