The toggle is a nice razor, but not better than its non-toggle counterparts. It is convenient, and relatively rare, seeing that it was only produced in a single year, and apparently only for the holiday season. I have one date-coded F3, third quarter 1960. 1960 being my year of birth. There are a few around from 1959 (date code E), but those apparently are all 'prototypes'. Not that I knew any of this when I bought it from Merwtje. Mine came without box or anything, an was clearly used, since some of the plating is gone, but is in excellent condition otherwise. I certainly would NOT pay that kind of money for a toggle.
