Genco Henry's XX

[Balto]

My Grandfather gave me HIS dad's old Genco Henry's XX Razor. Its pretty dirty and a few rust spots BUT not to bad.

Any info on this blade?

Also, I have never used a Straight Razor before HEHE (Just DE and SE)

I thought I would give it a go and thought this might be a ok razor to get started on?

I searched for the razor but coudl really only find stuff about the Henery's "X" not "XX" soooo not sure if this is the same or what?

Thanks for the info.

Never used one myself, but Gencos have a good reputation. I'd say clean it up, hone it up and give it a shave.

I don't know much about straights but a picture would be nice
