After falling in love love with a nos tech, that I had found in a package bundled with an aftershave sample and some canned soap. I’m hooked on the smoothness of the head design. The aluminium handle felt a bit flimsy, so I exchanged that with a merkur 1906 handle. For multi-day growth I found a gillette oc head and added the same merkur handle. A stunning looking combo, that I can only recommend. The merkur handle adds a little weight and fits just perfect.
But I noticed the oc head is definitely made out of brass, while the tech head feels like it was made out of aluminum or even pot metal....
I know I could look forever to find an old original tech pre 1960, but nice ones seem to be harder to find.
Is there anybody, who cloned the tech head in brass, stainless steel or at least a gold plated version ?
