What's new

In the wild snag

Hey everyone, first post here. I have been wet shaving for a year or so and have become enamored with it and the history. I have never stepped foot in an antique store in my life until last week where I found a “slim” and a “milord”. Both without cases and DIRTY! I cleaned them up and have used the milord twice while the slim is sent to the Emporium to fix the adjustment dial. Today I went to a neighboring city and found these three. Two Ikon’s and a ball end Gillette (I think it’s a “new”). Can anyone help me ID these three?

The Gillette is a NEW Long Comb.
Gillette New on the right, one of the finest razors I've ever used. Nice finds!

That’s what I figured. It has no cracks at all in the handle and the case is nice, even though it doesn’t have the blade case, so I picked it up in a bundle deal. Interesting though, I can’t find that case online anywhere and I’m wondering if that is the original case for that razor.

Definitely a mismatch. The case is for a Big Boy De Luxe. It’s more rare than the razor.

 
Can anyone tell me which Ikon heads these are?
