Which Vintage Slant?

Sorry chaps, me no likely the PAA technicolour plastic slants. Vintage Bakelite? Maybe.

Thanks anyway!
I have a PAA plain black (or maybe very dark brown) slant, which I think is bakelite, before he moved to coloured plastic. It's indistinguishable from a lot of vintage models, is the same design as the "tuppence-coloured" models, has a brass post and insert, and, regrettably, is no longer listed on the PAA website.
 
Came across this, which is a French website. Might be worth a look, but caveat emptor. They seem to have quite a few vintage slants, but whether too good to be true?

How about these?

that's a reputable site. The owner knows his stuff (and no, I am not in anyway linked but have bought from him)

Apart from Fasan, you could also try to look for a Mulcuto - sometimes, you can find NOS razors. Have also a look at the local German version of ebay (google translate is your friend). See for instance this Dorko for 25 EURO https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/dorko-rasierhobel/1905217983-240-1125
Not the best looking and not that cheap for this Neo-Lux, but shaves quite pleasantly https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s...iss-solingen-30iger-jahre/1676793208-240-3347

The Dorko is a smasher but do they follow the German tradition of using zamak? Or are they good old brass? I do like the Neo-lux but that one looks a little too chewed for my liking. Anyhoo, I might have accidentally on purpose managed to somehow buy an Eclipse Red Ring. Oops!
