There was one one Ebay unopened just a few days ago. Good question.Thread resurrection time... Would any of you buy a NOS unopened and unused black handle SuperSpeed and shave with it? Or would you leave it unopened for posterity? And would you overpay for an unopened NOS example vs. a used one in good condition?
Agreed. I used to get nasty chin cuts before I figured it out: Roll my lower lip into my teeth to stretch the skin then shave sideways.If you get BBS shaves with your Super Speed, that’s all you need. It took me up until just recently to get my technique down to finally achieve 3 pass BBS shaves with my 53 and 57 Super Speeds. Up until that time and over many years, I got easy BBS shaves with all of my expensive, aggressive razors but it takes real technique to achieve this with one of the mildest. I always disagreed that it is a beginner razor because you need very good technique to master it.
Well, my question is meaningless now because I saw this morning that it had sold.There was one one Ebay unopened just a few days ago. Good question.
Get a blade in there and start shaving. An unused razor is, what?I have a black-handle Superspeed that looks like it has never been used (but it's not NOS, not in the packaging). I have actually never tried it. I have 60s superspeeds that I have shaved with and I like them pretty well.
I guess I figured the black-handle was probably pretty much like the other superspeeds, and also because it was in such amazing condition, that I would rather sell it than shave with it. Well, I've had it for about 6 years and I haven't sold it yet. Maybe I should fire it up for a shave? Or maybe I should finally get around to selling it?
