Why Choose the YAQI Romulus?

• Premium 316 Stainless Steel Construction – Both the razor head and handle are machined from corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel, offering superior rust resistance and a mirror-polished finish that looks as good as it performs.
• Precise Blade Gap (0.70mm) – The engineered 0.70mm blade gap provides an efficient, aggressive-yet-controlled shave that suits most skin types and beard densities.
• Ergonomic Handle Design – At 91mm long and 11mm in diameter, the handle fits naturally in hand, giving you full control and reduced wrist fatigue during your shave.
• Substantial Weight (≈66g) – The razor's weight lets gravity and blade angle do the work — no pressure needed, which means fewer nicks and less irritation.
• AC Blade Compatible – Designed to accept AC (Artist Club) single-edged blades, offering a wide range of blade options for a personalised shave experience.
• Eco-Friendly & Cost-Effective – Replace only the blade, not the entire razor. A smarter, greener choice for your grooming routine.

Important Usage Note

When assembling or storing this razor without a blade installed, tighten the head gently — do not over-tighten. Excessive force without a blade can deform the top cover. Once a blade is installed, a firmer (but not excessive) tightening is appropriate. This small tip ensures your Romulus stays in perfect condition for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of blades does the YAQI Romulus Safety Razor use?

A: The YAQI Romulus is designed for AC (Artist Club) single-edged blades. These are widely available from multiple blade manufacturers and give you the flexibility to choose the sharpness and coating that best suits your skin and beard type.

Q: Is the YAQI Romulus suitable for beginners?

A: The Romulus has a 0.70mm blade gap which offers an efficient shave. It is best suited to users with some wet shaving experience, though beginners who take their time to learn proper angle and pressure will find it very rewarding. The weighted handle naturally encourages light pressure, which reduces the risk of cuts.

Q: How do I clean and maintain my 316 stainless steel safety razor?

A: After each use, disassemble the razor, rinse all parts under warm running water, and pat dry with a clean towel. Because the Romulus is made from 316 stainless steel, it is highly resistant to rust and corrosion. Periodic deep cleaning with a soft toothbrush and mild soap keeps it looking polished and performing at its best.

Q: Why is 316 stainless steel preferred for premium safety razors?

A: 316 stainless steel (also called marine-grade steel) contains molybdenum, which significantly improves its resistance to corrosion, especially in wet and humid bathroom environments. It is stronger, more durable, and more corrosion-resistant than the more common 304 stainless steel, making it the material of choice for high-end shaving instruments.
