@twhite @jmudrick I'm looking for a diplomat model to go with my new case.. let me know if you see one please.
I have a 2 and 3. So @Jorvaljr we are at war for a Diplomat. JK. If I find one I will let you know. I am on the hunt for the 1909 and OC Dammy right now. So my funds are for that at the moment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
Now that I know I can a good shave with a DeHaven I want all three models. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
*chortle* I'm hoping to hit an antique mall or two tomorrow or sunday, just to relax a bit, and I'm planning on looking for what @twhite wants.
My daughter is turning 10 and she's asked for a Cooper Monobilt, Barby Floating Head, or a nice thick handled Leresche. Just thought I'd mention it. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
if she wants a Barbie razor, you can get her one of the brass 'ladies' razors Leresche is probably outside of my price range - all of the ones I've seen are pretty expensive. Hadn't even heard of a cooper Monobilt until now. As for a Barbasol floating head - if I get one, I'd probably be willing to pass it along, but it'd get tried first!
Hmm. Maybe a try out when I'm back to LA? I'm hesitant to drop $100 on one but a lot of folks do love them. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
Quite probably. But I'd like to find out! I need to get a couple of blades in the mail to @twhite. See if he can hone the old stainless steel Ronson blade, so I can try that once before putting it up for someone else here to actually enjoy and possibly put on display.
There are a lot out there in the $50 range but tend to be the less desirable ones.The in demand ones do indeed require large dollars. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
I don't think you'll find the Diplomat any different than the model 2 but you (and Tom) are certainly welcome to try it out if you like. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
That is one gorgeous razor! Art and function both are so we'll represented in vintage razors. What a classic example of both in that razor.
It was a marvelous time for American industrial design, and the DeHaven is a great example of what beautiful tools are out there beyond the world of Gillette. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
