Greetings all, from Canada's far North!
Yes, I know, I'm not asking for much here. Just a hand full of "holy grails". Ones that are likely to be on more than a few member's wish lists. Well, they say it doesn't hurt to ask. So here I am, asking.
But just before I do that, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the great contributors here. I've very much appreciated all the information and expertise that is abundant on this website. Everything that I've learned about shaving I have learned here. I was too headstrong to learn from my dad, when his help was offered. Now it's too late. Anyway, I do try to "give back" to the forum, by providing photos of some rare razors from time to time (Portugal and Romania for example) that I've managed with some luck to acquire.
Anyway, to get on with it, I'm looking for the following razors, which I do appreciate are quite rare. I am willing (as I obviously must be) to pay fairly (via Paypal!) for examples that are in immaculate shape. Many thanks to anyone willing to consider giving any of these razors a loving new home:
Liebel (Belgium)
Petard (France)
Rasex Extra (Switzerland)
Feather 1200 (Japan)
Benz (Closed Bar, not Open Comb, Italy)
Metropolis (Italy)
Iberia (Spain)
Barbasol Open Comb
(By the way, did anyone else see that very short lived "NOS BIN Barbasol Open Comb" that was available just this morning, May 18, 2021 on Ebay? I missed it by a couple of minutes.)
Please feel free to contact me anytime in the future, no matter how far ahead from today. (I have a feeling this is going to take some time!)
Cheers, and thanks for considering this request.
