I saw one on the rack today but it was in the plastic. Not sure where it's made.

I know, Gil. The price is really tempting, too. Made by Derby International. I need to go back to Sally's and look to see where it's made. ~ Roger

This is the Shaving Factory/ Derby/ Ming Shi twist to open razor.

It's been on the market for quite some time, and reviews can be readily found.

I have owned a couple: I consider it to be better constructed than the similar Weishi, and about as aggressive as a typical Superspeed; way more useful that a Weishi which is so mild, it's effectively a paperweight.

For the price, and potential local availability it might be worth picking up.

I'm fairly sure that is the same razor as :

I have this one. It works just fine. I like that it comes in the cheesy, cheap plastic case as it also holds a small box or blades and fits VERY well in my luggage for travel.

I don't have a vast experience with multiple razors but it is less aggressive than my EJ89. More similar to my fatboy.

If I were in the market for an inexpensive travel razor I would certainly consider this one.
