Hi,
I started DE shaveing recently and bought myself a Muehle (or sometimes Muhle) R89. Currently I am testing different blades. Favourites so far:
ASTRA Super Platinum and Gillette 7o'clock sharp edge (Yellow ones).
One thing on my wishlist is a real vintage razor. I want one not for getting something rare or something which will be worth a million in ten years or
so but for being used.
Since I have a sensitive skin I think it is good practice to combine a mild razor with smooth but sharp blades to avoid to pass the same area of the skin
more often then needed. (and please correct me, if I am wrong...I am newbie still
I saw quite a few videos about vintage razors but the more I saw the more I got confused because the amount of opinions outnumbered the amount of
fact by far....
For what vintage razor model should look for? Which model is not that hard to get?
Gillette Tech? Maybe? Then...pre war, post war, aluminum? brass? Zamak? (Neodym, Gallium, Unobtanium...??? ) Or better a Schick Krona? Or a...
...
Please de-confuse me!
A said: I want a vintage razor for using it.
Cheers!
