I guess the latest Paradigm Diamondback is also going to be 100 only.

That’s what I hear, too. I sold mine — couldn’t get comfy with the handle.I guess the latest Paradigm Diamondback is also going to be 100 only.

I'm just ok with it , I'd probably get on better with the RS handle.

Extra drain hole for REALLY wet shaving

The RS handle is very secure by comparison.

Rarest is probably a new addition from a great B&B member, the Paradigm Ti 1

Resurrected this old thread because winter time is a great time for looking at rare razors - so keep‘em comin’, please!
I have a few very rare razor models, each counted today in less than 5 specimens (at least judging from online postings in various shaving sites). But this Rotbart has to be the rarest, no other specimens have ever been spotted and noone has seen it before. I got it for tuppence not even knowing it was a Rotbart.
I call it the “Pineapple”

As far as I know the only two piece SC.
Not sure if this leather Darwin travel set is the rarest I own but it is at least uncommon. It contains original blades and sharpening stone.
That's a beauty for sure! I love most things art deco and the handle knurling fits the bill!Resurrected this old thread because winter time is a great time for looking at rare razors - so keep‘em comin’, please!

Whoa... what?? Give me the story on this please! Is this a custom job or an actual Gillette prototype?
Hmm that would either be my 1921 New Improved Tuckaway
or my 1934 Aristocrat

This is a Star Bar #4 1919-21MFG (Kampfe brothers, Brooklyn NY, first safety razor MFG in USA) near the end of the lather catcher era, One of my favorite razors to use and a joy to go back to the days when life was simpler possibly for some. I receive a real decent close shave with this razor with no irritation or weepers most of the times I have used it. You do not see many of these razors at all on-line.
Have some great shaves! Stay & think safe in these times!

Custom, until I stamp matching serials on all parts and replate it...
A universal lama intera. Very hard to find here in the US
Wow! that Rotbart is something else!!
I have a two English Aristocrats .. 2nd 3rd editions ... still waiting to pick up a 1st edition OC at the right price. Recently got a 1921 New Improved (which I think is prob the best looking razor ,, after that Rotbart).
But as far as I have read .. my rarest razor would be my blue tip rocket .. which happens to be one of my least interesting used ones too; in fact its never been used by myself!
Great thread - and some great razors.
