Found another one!

[Rob341]

I picked up this razor for $15 dollars at a garage sale. It was cleaner looking than the first two razors I restored so I was willing to pay the extra money. Plus it came in the original cardboard box with some Gillette thin blades. I think it's a Gillette tech from 1940. It's cleaned up well' I had to take the lacquer off because. It was orange and chipping off. I found a new hobby! Friends tease me, saying its a weird hobby to have for being 26. I can't help myself here is something satisfying about restoring a razor that's older than you and then shaving with it

Sorry about the grammar it's from an iPhone.

Great find now spray it down with a fresh coat of lacqure a couple of times and your set.

Looking at the shape of the off centre holes, I think it's the late 40's type. It's the same as mine.

The best DE I have tried so far, it's such a smooth and effective razor.

Very nice find.

My first razor was this one, and it's still my favorite. Mine was in just about as good condition with no case, though. AMAZING find. Enjoy!

I agree Joris, it's a very smooth razor. I can shave quick with it and still get great shave. What blades do you use in yours?

Gorgeous, intact plating on that one. Nice find! I'd definitely put a coat or two of fresh lacquer on it.

Great buy! Techs are my #1 razor--all four of them. Team that find with a SuperMax SP, ARKO soap, and a good boar or badger brush and you'll have DE shaving at its finest.

Great Find, Rob! The razor is in beautiful shape!

 

[celestino]

Nice find and it looks great!

 

[Rob341]

That's my next buy, a good brush, still using a $3 one from a department store.

 

[Redstickjohn]

Great razor. I have a couple just like that one and love 'em both.

So far, it has worked great with everything I used in it: Derby, Croma Diamant, Rapira, Super Max Super Platinum.

Nice catch with the original box! I would've payed the extra premium for the box too haha,

 

[Rob341]

The only reason I say $15 is extra is because the first razors I bought were $5 and $2.

Really nice!

 

[Deano]

Very nice. I have one also. Nice mild shaver.
