Please join me for Vintage April, 2023!

We'll dedicate the entire month of April for vintage razors of all types, DE & SE! :)

Let's update the definition of 'vintage' to include any DE or SE razor manufactured 1973 or earlier. In other words, any razor 50 or more years old.

Beginning on 4/1, I'll start posting my vintage DE & SE shaves to this thread. If you would like to do so, please feel free to post your vintage shaves and comments.

Have Fun and Happy Shaves. :cool:
It's been a bit since I used my New Long Comb, or the Short Comb for that matter.... Two of the best razors ever made in my proud opinion! I will definitely give at least THOSE two a try in April my friend!

Outstanding! Looking forward to reading about your shaves. :)
A great excuse to use them again! Honestly, for anyone on a budget and/or afraid of RAD, either of those razors would be all I ever can imagine NEEDING, and I am nearly certain that I would never part with those. Just top notch in every single way.

Edit: this would be an excellent time for me to use some vintage Avon aftershave lotions as well!

I don’t think I could pick a vintage razor to use three days from now. Too much pressure in that decision! 😜😎

We will see how I feel on Saturday morning. Maybe there will be a rare Single Ring sighting in my den? Maybe an RFB? Who knows.

But today it will be a pre-war Tech. Because I am traveling, and that’s what I have with me! 😎
 
The beginning of Vintage April 2023 approaches! :)

April 1st is Saturday! What will be your inaugural razor for Vintage April 2023?

My newly replated (in Mirror Nickel by Back Roads Gold) Gillette New Improved Tuckaway:

I shaved a fortune
I graduated from HS in 1971........... all my shaves are vintage.... but respectfully, I only have one razor that would qualify unless we can really count the Progress... though mine was a Christmas gift from our youngest son last year. I gave him a Progress XL..and he gave me the standard one. I do have my birth year razor... so I know that one qualifies... but I'll have to quietly bow out... we'll be in Bali for most of April... and most of May as well.

When the shaver is ready, the razor will appear. :)
