A good friend is sending me a Rockwell Elite titanium-coated handle to complement my Carbon Damascus and Mokume-gane razor heads.
Excellent...if it contains original blades, don't use them! I think modern Gems will be fine but keeping the original blades in the pack should help retain collector value...you'll thank me in 50 years time! Oh...shit...I won't be around then I know, live for the moment...use them! I bet you're glad you get such sound advice here aren't you? No need to thank me.
From what I've heard those vintage blades will be a little grabby compared to modern GEM SS blades, just keep them.Excellent...if it contains original blades, don't use them!

The '12 is a great razor!Also @danielb193 it looks like a great razor and I'm sure you'll enjoy it
Why not? What's wrong with vintage? You young upstart modernist person you...why, you deserve a modern smack (in a totally modern and non-abusive and entirely theoretical way, of course) are you saying we older and vintage people are simply not worth it? My goodness...what is this world coming to?"="danielb193, post: 797131, member: 10982"]
Thanks all. Don't worry, I won't try to use the vintage blade!
