Radio (British) 1912.
Wanted one since I saw the handle.
This came up. Won, received, cleaned up nicely and ready for Saturday's shave.
Haven't seen too many around.

That is one nice looking razor. I've never heard of Radio. Were they affiliated to Ever Ready? Or Gem?

I understood it was quite rare. This may tell us more:

Mine isn't as pristine an example.

It's a keeper. Many congrats. Remember and let us know how it shaves. Thanks for the link â˜º

A Triad Brass Aristocrat arrived today. At 100mm and 90g, I'd call it an XL.

Not shaving related but a great mail-call for me as I love Mike's shampoo bars

Darkbulb · Thursday September 22, 2016

Received these four vintage brushes for about $7/brush. The knots are..well...not the best but I love the handles

Darkbulb · Friday September 23, 2016

My favorite haul of the week was this box containing two brand new FS brushes and a brand new Barbaros TR-1 razor.
$150 is not pocket change but, I have to say that in this case it felt like a very fair price.

I used one of the brushes and the razor this morning and had a great shave

The two brushes:

...and the very attractive Barbaros TR-1 razor:

There were, I believe, only 120 of these razors made and I feel very fortunate to have score a brand new one.
Great job @theunnamed - loved it

I'll ask the question. They are made from aluminium BTW.
