I haven't been able to get out much since I had both of my knees replaced but I did this weekend. The wife and I hit a couple of our favorite flea markets and found these. The one on the left is a silver plated 1918 Old Type, the center one is from 1921 and according to the serial number it was one of the last few to get a S/N and thin cap. The one on the right is a silver plated Hoffritz Slant.

Nice haul! Here’s to a smooth recovery with your knees.
From now on let's try to post all new acquisitions in this thread. That way everyone will be able to easily find them.
Heard you stole it. Give it back.I have LITERALLY fallen in love with my Krona.... I may have KAD coming on!
Seriously, I want MORE doggone!
"from my cold dead hands!"Heard you stole it. Give it back.
I'm not sure what I won. I think it's a british aristocrat, but I can't be certain.
Yes. I've seen some like it before, should shave similar as it's a clone after all.I've figured it out. The listing had the name in it, it is not a gillette, it is a russian clone called a "Volga". Pretty darned convincing clone. Part sad, part excited to have an unknown coming my way.
Bought another spare Pearl. SSH-01. I use 2 Pearl open combs and have a couple of spares. But this one was less than 12 EUR.
With every year Pearls are getting sparser in Europe. I mean the regular non-adjustable models. They were available by Gifts & Care, but it is clear they are discounting them during the last months, and only have 2 models left from the ~20 they used to offer. The razor on the above photo was the last SSH-01 they had. I can see many sellers in the US stopped selling them too.Went to check price near me and couldn't find a listing.
Handle is a Star. Nice scoreSo I picked up this razor on Kijiji yesterday for $15 Asa back up/ travel razor. Reading some other threads tells me it is a post WWII Gillette Tech made in Canada 4 piece. Anyone know anything more about these? It is in pretty good shape other than some of the playing coming off at the top. It also came with a spare gold handle. Looking forward to trying it.
