    Found three razors on my lunch walk at the flea/farmers market. There is one Shake Sharp. One ball end, and one Giko or Geko travel razor.What stumps me is the ball end. It seems to be a clone that is a combo of a ball end or old type. The ball spins to take the razor apart. If anyone knows what it might be, I would be interested to know.

    Sure looks like a Barbasol.

    I'd be ecstatic if I got a haul like that.
    I agree, the middle razor looks like a Barbasol. The Shake Sharp is the first model version and is fairly rare. Fairly aggressive too, but a good shaver. If you don't like it, @macaronus has been looking for that model. The third razor is a Merkur travel razor. They made them for a variety of companies. I have an Apollo branded one. The older gold and nickel plated razors are nicer than the current chrome plated version Merkur sells now.
