SE Razor Convert

Tall_Paul · Thursday July 21, 2011

What's a good price to pay for these razors then? Are they less desirable (and therefore less expensive) than DE's?

Well I have just paid merwtje Â£45 for a Chrome Boxed Ever Ready Streamline and 2 other SEs. :angel::angel: Plenty on eBay though if that is your thing, some for peanuts.

Well well, MoL goes single-edge!

I was over to SE shaving as well on advice of Steve. First tried the Featherweight, nice. Now a closed comb Micromatic, even better (weight?) Maybe should try the Streamline/Jewel soon.

For who like to purchase some I have a big variety of SE razors in stock.

Better than that young Chris, had my second shave today, was better than the first so as far as I am concerned now a fully fledged SE man. With a super Ever Ready Streamlined in a Chrome case winging its way to me from Merwtje. :icon_razz::icon_razz:

Just bought an 'immaculate' (hmm we shall see) Ever Ready in a Bakelite box off the bay of flea.

They are certainly much cheaper than DE razors!

I've just purchased a GEM 1912 Junior from the "Razorworxs" seller on the bay. *Great* service: emailed back and forth to settle on the razor and plating I want. Now I just have to wait for it to arrive. I could have got one cheaper, for sure, but considered it worth it to get one in nice condition from someone who seems to know their stuff. Here's hoping it lives up to the hype.

Right fourth shave tonight, still getting better and the blade is still ok. :icon_smile:

Just won a Gem Featherweight on the bay of flea. So that's two SE's to add to the collection!

Of all my SEs, this is definitely my favourite one:

So is it my imagination or is my Slimline slightly different to Lagaffe's ????

There are different versions available Pete. I remember reading a thread over on B&B about the differences. I'll try and find it for you.

Here you go.
