I love the Gnats! They really are a rarely seen little sliver plate beauty! 
Your rarest razor
- Thread starter highball
- Start date
My Gillette Old type. No serial number, so I believe it's from 1903 or possibly early '04. Shaves great and stays in my regular rotation.
Here is one you don't see often,
No one seems to know much about them or what the set was called;

My rarest is probably the Otto Roth I picked up this week.View attachment 663783
Probably my Personna adjustable, I have never used it.
I think I would enjoy a nice Ever Ready Uk Streamiline in it's place
I have the same one. You should use it! It is probably the best shaving adjustable I have tried.
Probably my Eclipse Red Ring or Wilkinson Sword Sticky.
My 1961 Fatboy is my rarest razor I've acquired so far.
amazing thing that archale.

Hello all, here's the closest I can come to unobtainium, my American Rocket-
Here are the rarest ones that I have. I found all of these over the last year at flea markets, antique shops, and junk stores and I picked them all up for a little more than $50 total.
This razor's not rare but I doubt there are many NOS sets like this one out there.

I just picked up a VE Still Angle DE razor. I haven't seen any posts on this one so I think it must be pretty rare.
Very rare & beautiful too!
I've owned and sold a Darwin Popular DE, which was Darwin's equivalent of the Eclipse Red Ring, as well as a Wilkinson Sword Edge Adjustable which was a prototype never released for sale which preceded the Wilkinson Sticky - both of those were extremely rare and sold accordingly (!)
My current rarest DE is the Wardonia Single Ring - another prototype never released for general sale.
It takes standard DE blades and Nigel Sharpe who is surely the world's premier Wardonia expert (wardoniarazors.com) can only find eight of these in existence: one here with me in Devon, one with a collector in Italy and Nigel has the other six which he acquired at a Wardonia stock auction,but four of those were never assembled.
I guess that qualifies this razor as rare [emoji3]

That seems about as likely as the Cubs winning the World Series.
