The SNAP! Single edge safety razor

[slapo]

Hi people,

I've found something that looks like a Yaqi Katana on Etsy that calls itself "The SNAP! Single edge safety razor".
As far as I can tell, there's only one store selling them: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1022625622/the-snap-single-edge-safety-razor.

It might not be for everyone, but, perhaps, it might be of interest to those who like the Yaqi Katana or Stando Prowe.

At the moment, the shop doesn't seem to ship to the UK, unfortunately.

@culcreuch, @Electrif: this might be something of interest to you, gents.

Thanks for thay. Certainly interesting......but a lot of cash for an Alu razor without a track record!

Kind of what I've been thinking... If it were half its current price, I'd have probably nabbed one, but at its current price, I'd rather grab another Prowe II OC.

Perhaps just an old batch that someone is selling off?

Quite possibly. It's rather curious that there don't seem to be any reviews of it or the DE around.

EDIT: Found one: https://www.paste-and-cut.com.au/community/threads/robin-razor-snap-review.7292/
Not sure I like the way it seems to clamp blades far from the cutting edge.

Agreed!!

Hello,

The Snap SESR is my creation - I make them in a small shop in Montreal, Canada. I just came across this thread, and thought I should mention that I have now set up shipping to the UK!

The razor listed is still called "The SNAP! VERSION 2.0 - Single edge safety razor" in the listing.
"The Robin razor" only appears in the description, so I went with the product name that was near the price tag.

Is it called Snap because you need to snap a DE blade in half?
