Bolin Webb is a young brand which specialises in razors and grooming products. Good design is central to their ethos and shapes are based 'on the smooth lines of classic British cars'. Using Gillette blades, the razors come in two ranges: the R1 with a Mach3 blade and the X1 with a Fusion blade. I was sent an R1 Monza Red razor for review. Nicely-finished in red with an attractive, well-weighted, curving handle, it's a handsome object: it's also made in the UK.
Shaving is as you'd expect from a Gillette Mach3 blade. Its three blades cut well with minimal pressure and the handle sits well in the hand. Although an unconventional shape, it works.
Blade replacements are, of course, easy to find and Bolin Webb offer various accessories to go with the razors: stands, blade cases, face balm and shave cream. I didn't have the opportunity to test any of these.
The R1 costs £45. Support a British-made product by buying one of these attractively designed razors. See Bolin Webb.
