Oh mine I just bought it too it is 1956 B1. Do u know which material it made from?
Solid American brass .
Brass?? That gonna be long lasting my super speed red tip.
Got the Prewar Tech in todays' mail & put it up against my bestest & smoothest-shaving razor, the Ugly Old Style Frankenrazor - it's the standard by which I compare all new arrivals. The new Tech is now the first place razor for all comparisons. It was just a tad smoother in the 1 pass shave for both.
Today's mail
Both of that well known auction site
Rocket hd with case and slight brassing underneath but nothing that concerns me £20
And a flair tip rocket £15 lovely condition
Couple of decent bargains I think

Thank you! It’s nice to be here and browse the forums
Hey, thanks! It is a nice setup- nice to look at and it all works very well to keep my brush and razor dry. I’m really liking it!
Newly coated by North Shore Razors is my F2 Fatboy travel razor. I realized this summer when traveling for 3 weeks that an adjustable just might be my best option when on the road, so I picked up a cheap Fatboy and Scott at NSR did the rest.
Scrubbing bubbles didn't remove it. Acetone and paint stripper didn't work either. Whatever it is, I'd like to get some in clear, since it seems impervious to everything. Sent a note to the seller asking what it may be, so I can figger out how to safely remove it, but haven't heard back yet.
That's the laquer Gillette put on to protect the Gold finish. Leave it be, its beautiful! In all seriousness though, it will probably come off if you soak it in water fresh from a hot tea kettle.

It’s missing a piece on the side. Otherwise, solid.
Sorry, no, Gillette used a clear lacquer and it was applied evenly, and not the red stuff that was haphazardly and unevenly applied.
