Can someone help me confirm the identity of these razors?

Hello! I purchased 5 double edge razors from a gentleman on craigslist. Not really to make a buck or anything but more for gifts and to keep a couple for myself. It was actually pretty interesting, when i met him he had a tackle box with razors and blades in different slots.
The first one, I wont bore you with a picture is a Gillette adjustable I believe from 1965 with a "k1" date code. This is the reason I responded to the ad. ( any idea how to clean this one without messing up the mechanism?

#2, I believe to be a merkur classic 1904 based on pictures. Its a little over 3 inches long. (pictures will be at the end.)

#3 I believe to be a Merkur 23c. Its about 4.1 inches long.

#4 is Also a Merkur and looks just like the 23c but is shorter.

#5 may be Gillette. " The goodwill" looks almost exactly the same but the cap of mine is almost a copper color while the rest is gold.
Maybe the cap was replaced? Anyways thanks for looking and i apologize for boring you with another "identify this razor thread".

Can you take a back side pic...it looks like a goodwill.
 
It's a Goodwill. It's just lost the gold plating on its cap so you're seeing the color of the red brass base metal.
