The head on yours is the final revision which was sold from the early '60s into at least the '80s. As for heretical thoughts... To be honest,...
I still hold with Galvanic Corrosion. Probably more common with Zamac head and Brass handle.
Personally, I continue to maintain that the issue is not with Zamak, per se, but with Galvanic Corrosion between a Zamac cap screw and a...
Interesting. Brazilian or, maybe, Argentinean?
Agreed. Personally, I think that the G8 shaves more like an E2 or E3. I think something got mucked up in the Eversharp acquisition and it took...
There's definitely some differences in the G series beyond cosmetics. What I've noticed is a difference in the depth of the safety bar, at least...
I've only seen pictures of the comparison set but I don't think the razors themselves were special, just the then-current I and J non-Hydromagic,...
I figured as much. It kind of makes me wonder what the terms of their contract are and whether that had anything to do with why Pearl pulled the...
My compliments as well. For some time, I've thought that the whole I and J classification was hopelessly broken. IIRC, @jimjo1031 was the first...
So the Pearl razors are not listed on pearlshaving.com. TBH, the only reason that I knew the model numbers is that I still have a saved eBay...
The Pearl DOC carried the model number SSP-94 or SSP-95, depending on handle. It looked to be a copy of the PAA. Sent from my iPhone using...
Great shave! Is there anybody who didn't have a part in making it happen? :-)
Can't wait to hear your opinion of them.
I've decided that I'm just not creative enough to rate a CT. :-)
Still here, BTW. Last couple of shaves, I've been a bit lazy and just grabbed the MingShi 3000S since it already had a Spoiler in it. Great...
Holy Crap! I'm watching last night's "Forged In Fire" and, for the first round, the bladesmiths have to make a Canister Damascus blade . The...
No argument, it is definitely aesthetically challenged. I wish I understood why the best Chinese razors have such odd aesthetics.
Just a quick update.... Monday's shave was a timeless classic- F2 Fatboy and a Spoiler. I was sporting some heavy growth so I bumped the setting...
Sorry I haven't been around much of late. Work was a bear for most of last week and the beginning of this week. For those familiar with software...
We recently had a WC open less than a mile from our house. My wife's new obsession is Impossible Sliders (cheese, no extra salt). Within more or...
