Left to right
1 Looks a bit like a Gillette 7oclock tech
2 I think that says 'Lord' on it, though I've never owned one so I don't know what they look like.
3 Flare tip, and it appears to be the british version, so, rocket instead of super speed.

Super Speeds in general are considered by many to be the middle of the road razor, not too mild or aggressive. Hope you enjoy yours....

Just shaved last 3 days with a silvertip flare (birth year and quarter Z3) and a 7 O'Clock Black. Nice shaves!
Flare tip Superspeed has a rep as a mild shaver, but to me I can get both closeness and comfort from it. Also, although the handle is on the short side, it is easy as pie to grip because of the texture.
In short, I love mine, and hope you will get great shaves from yours!
Cheers!

That Super Speed is a great start in vintage razors though I'd use those Derby blades with care as some people love them but the vast majority generally describe them as bad.
YMMV but I just didn't want you thinking you'd gotten a rubbish razor when you had gotten a rubbish blade.

 

[smokeydave]

Thank you I Have used them all ready probably put them up for pif..
As someone else might use them..

I'm inclined to agree with AMB on this one, that the razor on the right is more likely a flare-tipped Rocket than a Super Speed. The handle seems to be missing the crimp ring down by the knob. If that's the case, then you will probably find it to be a touch more aggressive than the Super Speed would be.

Great find and enjoy the razors.

will post the pics when the post man delivers them will have a better idea.
Even post what the outcome of the shave.
