I’m going to be in the market for my first antique razor and I’m not sure what to look for.
If I go on eBay there are a lot of different year Gillette’s with a lot of model names.
For reference - I use a Muhle R41 and a Merkur Slant as I need a little more aggressiveness to get a smooth shave.
I also don’t know what to inspect from photos or if fakes are an issue.
If there is a thread or other reference I would appreciate it as I just want to make sure I get a good one.
Not looking for anything super expensive or rare, just a nice old school razor.
Thanks in advance
