Nothing wrong with Gillette Techs. I have two, but I only paid for one (eight quid), won the other in a raffle.Nice to hear about some vintage razors other than the Gillette Tech. Are there any from that list you'd recommend to someone new to vintage?
All of them!!!Nice to hear about some vintage razors other than the Gillette Tech. Are there any from that list you'd recommend to someone new to vintage?
Everyone needs a 1912. Cheap as chips. A very clever design for something over 100 years old.
Keep Kampfe Star razors for later.
Start with a nice 1912, everyone should have at least one of those, perfect shaver for newbies and veteran shavers.
Thanks, there seem to be plenty in decent condition on eBay, I might try one out as a novelty.
From what I can make out they need a special type of SE blade. Are those easily available these days?
Simple! ThanksGEM by Personna Stainless Coated Single Edge Razor Blades

There's certainly nothing that beats the feeling of finding that sweet spot where razor, blade and soap come together perfectly. I'm glad you're enjoying the AS-D2... You make me want to try one!Is it the very best safety razor you can buy today? Probably not.
Is it the very best safety razor for me? Definitely.
OMFG I can't even hide away in an entirely separate thread!
