Rocketdude, yes, the handle is similar to a DE and the head design reminds me of a Burham SE (to a degree). Very little information online exists about this razor (due to it's obscurity). I had to add as much info and details about the Superman as possible. If only I could review the original blades but I don't have them. I think that you or anyone would enjoy a Superman adjustable. It's not the aggressive beast that it looks like not at all.

I thought I would open this old thread as there is not much information on the Superman razor and drumzalot did such a great job with all this information and great pictures. My Superman arrived yesterday and I will give it a clean etc. and take it for a run soon, can't wait!

If it'll cut Supermans whiskers you know that it'll work great on anyone not from the planet Krypton.
Nice looking razor! (But I like shiny things)

WOW! I haven't heard of this one before. Another razor to put on my bucket list. Where did you find it grassy?

Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird ... It's a plane ... It's the Superman razor! Amongst the slew of single edge razors manufactured the Superman is quite a rarity, I believe that even the word rare is an understatement. This is the only adjustable single edge razor (not including injectors) that I know of. There is this patent: razors.click/patents/US1370960/patent/... but I don't think it has ever been made ... and with hindsight... there is Igor.
