If you can get your hands on a Rotbart Mond-Extra razor

[GentsInstinct]

Do it.

I just had an awesome shave with one of these German razors. I bought it 2 weeks ago. I don't know if mine is a pre-"Gillette bought Rotbart company in 1927". Absolutely wonderful shave with a new IP blade and Nancy Boy Signature Cream. The shave was so good, instead of drying the razor off and returning it to the display case in the living room, it's in my razor holder in the bathroom ready for the next shave! Can't say enough about this razor!

I have one that looks almost exactly the same. Sadly I ruined the look of it's "head" in my cleaning process, due to rackless use of vinegar, so it looks really bad. But if it's a good shaver, then maybe I should give it a try
