    A friend from high school who knows I am into classic razors gave me his grandfather's razors today. The Slim (H2-1962) has some tarnish, but the Black Beauty is in decent shape. They cleaned up nicely.

    I tried to pay him, but he wouldn't take any money. What a stand up guy!

    I have a Slim Adjustable too, I used it two times so far. First time on setting 3, and the second time on setting 4. Love my Slim. I can't ever think of a day or point in my life I'll depart with it.

    I must learn to use my 34c HD first but an adjustable is already on my radar.

    Great catch mate and enjoy!

    Wow, I wish I had a super adjustable. Ebay is my best bet I'll get one someday.

    That's a nice looking black beauty, I always wonder how many great shaves have come from these razors.

    The Black Beauty (A1 - 1980) did not disappoint.
