It is a Merkur 907 mustache razor.  I use it to trim my mustache and beard lines.

But it's a DE razor with a DE blade.

Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

I think you are putting a rather fine point on that. It isn't what we usually mean when we refer to DE razors.

Cold Water Rinse
Palmolive Shave Cream
Jayaruh #424 Synthetic
Unmentionable by twhite
Unmentionable blade
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave

The Palmolive Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #424 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Unmentionable Razor by Tom with an Unmentionable Blade set on 8 gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I had a great shave this morning with Tom's 3D printed WABBIT. This is one efficient razor.
