I get my twin blades from jaipfe on ebayJapanese Schick Twin blades are quite often available on ebay (Search for 'Schick Twin blades Japan'). Not always at reasonable prices. They are as good as NOS ones in my opinion. YMMV...
You haven't shaved until you've tried SE and injector razors... and you need to try a straight razor...
There is always the Lending Pool. Try before you buy...
Twin Blades are Only Elusive to Folks with Elusive Pockets..I would love some twin blades. They seem elusive...
That seller sounds familiar for a good reason...I get my twin blades from jaipfe on ebay
Good SE razors can be had for a song... I think I paid £8 for my near mint, boxed Ever-Ready 1912 SE razor and the blades last for ages... best money saving rabbit hole everMy wife would object to your suggestions I think lol
She keeps reminding me that I said I was going to save money lol
Until catching up with this thread, right now - never heard of the KronaAhh yes, the Schick Krona. So good, I had to get two of them. Smoother than Smooth Jack McSmooth, the smoothest smoothie in all of Smoothtown...
Scratch the above. The British One-Piece Aristocrat tops all of them. Maybe not quite the same level of shaver as some of them, but it more than makes up for it in the looks department. It's got a nice hefty feel in the hand as well.I've narrowed it down to a few. That's better than expected really.
Blackland Blackbird, efficient and dangerous looking, a conversation starter for sure.
Cooper MonoBilt, a fairly rare American razor made in the early 1930's. A nice shaver, well constructed and over engineered.
Bigelow-Parkin, the razor design that inspired the Cooper Monobilt. A unique American design, and the smallest (full size DE blade using) razor. Also gives good shaves and is another fairly rare razor.
The Shake Sharps. An uncommon American razor, these use a DE blade in an SE style configuration. The first generation of these with the Bakelite frame are very aggressive. The second generation razors with a metal frame are very nice shavers indeed.
Gillette Fatboy. Doesn't give as nice a shave as the other razors, but it's a good looking razor. It combines balance and weight in a way that Gillette never quite achieved again (in my opinion).
