Help. Can find out what this DE razor is

[kopasas]

Three weeks ago I found this DE safety razor in an antique store. Searching the web ever since but no luck.Please fellow wet shavers help.

There are no marks or letters anywhere on the razor.

I can't help with the id but it looks like a nice one to try. Great find.

It might help to show some more photos of the razor apart and close ups of the base plate and the head of the razor.

+1! Nice looking piece!

It looks to me like it might be a Gillette Tech, but hard to say from the pic. I've seen Tech's with a similar handle and the head design looks to be about right but it could of course be a copy by a different maker. Someone here will know what it is.

Looks to be a knock-off of the Star 100 which was patterned after the Tech.

I'll grab some pics of my Star 100 to compare.

I had a feeling you might recognise it.

I am no vintage razor expert. It reminds me of the Merkur 1904. And I remember once reading that the Merkur 1904 is not based on a Gillette razor but instead on another brand. Perhaps a GEM?
