Ming Shi 2000S Adjustable Razor

I bought this Ming Shi 2000s back in May of 2017 for a little over $6. It is a clone for the Merkur Futur. It weighs in at 99g and is one of the heaviest razors in my collection. I have only used it a half dozen times since then. That is the problem with having over 150 razors to choose from. Well, this week, I have been shaving with this razor, and I am really impressed with the way it shaves. I am doing two passes, and I have only a couple of places that need touchups. However, I could do without the touchups. I am just picky. 

Although I am a big fan of vintage razors, I am really impressed with the quality of shave I got with the Ming Shi 2000s. At under $10, it can't be beat.
