Safety Razor Acquisition Thread.

Haven't bought many DE razors as of late but I had to pop on this one when I saw it.

Gillette RFB New made for the French market.

Arrived yesterday. There's a lot of conflicting information on the dating of Merkur Progress razors. Anyone know more than I as to how old this razor actually is? 1.jpg2.jpg3.jpg4.jpg5.jpg6.jpg
 
Great Photos - now I don't have to post mine! Fine-looking handle, too - where is it from? Did the 2nd shave with mine today & it gives a smooth, effortless shave.
The handle is Razorock Radioknob handle from Italian Barber. Glad you had a great shave with it.
 
My 2 for today listed on Facebook marketplace £7 for the 2. Only one photo on listing which wasn't the best could tell the twist but the other I wasn't to sure thought maybe a parat. The twist has some plate loss and cracked loose handle but the other is a lovely aristocrat junior I believe 1949-1952 weighing 72g which just needed a clean not even polished it yet... Can anyone confirm from pics I'm right in my thinking have been known to get my razors mixed up

Cheers
Marc

Haven’t posted here in a very long while - my sources (or wishes) have dried up, sadly...

...However this beauty arrived today from my good friend Thomas - a minty 2nd generation British Aristocrat, rare Australian(?) version with maroon leatherette interior. And with a shipper! - My very first Aristocrat shipper!

I will take utmost care of this, sir!!
