Tradere Razor Registry

I have all three and, imho, the Tradere is better than the Pils. To compare it to the Feather, however, is like comparing apples and oranges: they are just too dissimilar. To me, it will be interesting to compare the upcoming Tradere solid bar to the Feather. Regardless, I find myself using the Tradere open comb as my go-to razor.

btw, as far as price goes, the Tradere is definitely conservatively priced -

I'm comparing the relative market values. I've also got a Feather and agree they aren't in the same universe in terms of shaving characteristics, but the point of my post is that if the build quality of the Feather commands $179.00, then the build quality of the Tradere would seem to warrant a much higher market value, so I expect their value to hold and improve.
I'm also looking forward to the Tradere SB/Feather comparison. Richard says the SB will be available end of August so we don't have long to wait.
 
The Tradere Open Comb was my favorite razor until I tried the Standard Bar Tradere. Smooth, efficient, and comfortable. You are all in for a treat

Awesome, Dave - I'm totally looking forward to it.

quick question: did you try using the razor with the handle from the Open Comb? I'm curious to know if the new handle really makes a difference -

Thanks -

I'm using it with the handle that came with the Open Comb. The new handle isn't available yet.

I was happily watching the serial numbers being added to a list that I THOUGHT would account for 200 razors - until OC-00207 appeared.....

How many OC's were produced in this run
:detective:

There were 207 razors engraved. A few were rejected by the factory or us for QC reasons, so there are ~200 plus a few prototypes in existence. I asked them to do a 10% overrun, but they made as many as they could with the materials they had ordered. The solid bar is model SB, so the first razor coming up will be SB-00208. The open comb is model OC, so when the bottom plates are made they will OC-00XXX and will just pick up wherever they come in the engraving queue. At the end of 2012and each year thereafter, I will post and put on the web site the numbers made through the end of each year. I decided to go this way so folks would always know the year in which their razor was made and that each of our machined razors will have a unique serial number. So, for example, there will never be another 00171.

My Tradere should be one of my best razors in my collection (209 pieces). But I feel, that HE is too aggressive for me. All my other stainless steel razors are better friends (Lux, Ikon, Feather, Pils, Weber).
 
I picked up Cochese's #142 but dont know how to edit the list

Probably should get the closed comb list started too!!!

Got it covered.


Is it ok to add the SB model in the list?
