Whityle New Design
There is no model name or number on this razor. It comes in a generic cardboard box. I bought it as a "New Design 1-8 Adjustable Razor".
It's a sort of a Whityle / Snmirn (read magnet) / thick handle (Pearl Flexi) combo and a Gibbs type Adjustment system. It has the head of the Whityle, with a very large diameter handle. Although the handle is thick, its made of aluminium and I suspect is also hollow, so is very light.
The middle plate has magnets that hold the blade in place to load it (I don't believe that it needs them) and the top cap screws on. Once the top cap is tightened down and the blade is clamped, the magnets serve no purpose.
The head is somewhat a differential with one side having small ridges on the safety bar and the other side been smooth. (First picture in the second row below)
They come in two versions, this one and a completely gold coloured one.

How does it shave?
It's about as aggressive as the first Whityle so I find it a very good shaver. The first shave with it, I thought that the ridged side was very slightly more aggressive, but on the second shave I couldn't confirm it.
It also falls into the "Excellent Value for your Money" category.
