Important Usage Note

When designing the Romulus razor, YAQI engineers accounted for the installation thickness of the blade. Do not over-tighten the razor head when no blade is installed — a gentle lock is sufficient. Over-tightening without a blade can cause deformation of the top cover. Once a blade is properly installed, you may tighten it firmly. Please keep this in mind to protect your razor and ensure a long service life.

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) format single-edge blades. These are widely available from most shaving supply retailers and are known for their exceptional sharpness and longevity. Blades are not included with the razor.

Q: Is the YAQI Romulus suitable for beginners?

A: The Romulus, with its 0.70mm blade gap and substantial 66g weight, offers a balance of efficiency and control that can suit both beginners and experienced wet shavers. New users should start with light, angled strokes and let the weight of the razor do the work, avoiding excess pressure.

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

A: Rinse the YAQI Romulus thoroughly under warm running water after each use. Periodically disassemble the razor head and clean with a soft brush. The 316 stainless steel construction is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, so minimal maintenance is needed. Avoid over-tightening the head assembly when no blade is installed to prevent deformation.

Q: Why choose a single-edge safety razor over a cartridge razor?

A: Single-edge safety razors like the YAQI Romulus provide a closer, more precise shave with less skin irritation. They are also far more economical in the long run, as replacement AC blades cost a fraction of multi-blade cartridges. Additionally, they generate significantly less plastic waste, making them a more eco-conscious shaving choice.
