    I just picked up a couple of Lady Light Blue Star razors today and noticed a few differences when I was cleaning them. From left to right, I have a G4, J3, and K2. The G4 and J3 both have silvery blue handles vs. the baby or powder blue of the K2, and the starbursts on G4 are the same silvery blue as its handle, rather than the darker blue seen on the other two. But the most notable difference is that the G4 has what appears to be aluminum silo doors instead of the nickel plating -- which actually looks a lot cooler. Just some interesting variations that I thought I'd share with the masses.

    And this gets #1000 out of the way. :D

    Is the one that looks like aluminum actually lighter? I have one that looks similar, and I just figured it was not as shiny.

    Without a scale, I can't tell, but they feel the same in the hand.

    Yeah, I though it was just dull too when I first looked at it.

    I have one of those, but can't figure out if it's the second or the third.
    Mine looks more of a light turquise with turquise stars.

    Does it look like the one in this thread? That would be the "dark" blue.

    Hmmm. I have a few and never noticed that. To me all three of them look like the light blue. the third just looks a tad darker. The dark blue is much darker, unless it is just the lighting.

    nvm. you didn't say it was the dark blue. lol. But that is something I have noticed, there are more than one shades of the light blue.

    Irena, that is the dark blue. My wife loves those razors. (I never thought I could get her to use them)
