  2. Thanks amigo, I would vote the Timeless the best new stainless steel razor of 2016. It's really that good. Zero drag, glides without any trouble. So far I've used Polsilver, 7 o' clock , Gillette Wilkinson, and Feathers. All work great. I sound like a car dealer here but the razor is that good .
  3. Nice. That looks like it's silver? If so, have you tried the hot water / banking soda / aluminum foil treatment?

  4. Gonna use this razor tomorrow. It's not a New, or at least it doesn't match the two I have. It has a flat bottom. Is this a New Deluxe? Any ID help gentlemen?

    A first rate shave this morning. I absolutely love Fine L'Orange Noir. Along with Platinum they are my two favorite aftershaves by a wide margin. So having a soap to match L'Orange Noir allows me to enjoy the scent throughout the shave. I find the soap very easy to use in shave stick form with easy lathering and solid performance. Sticking with my normal 3 pass shave and touch ups allowed me to catch the baby all over with the exception of my bottom right neck. It's not worth the hassle this morning so I will call it a near BBS. I finished the shave with a splash of Fine L'Orange Noir. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

  7. Up next for OCtober;
    Grafco open comb
    Probably made by Merkur for a medical supplies company named Graham Field Co.
    Its a three piece open comb safety razor. This model does not require a key to open.
    Date of manufacture is the only thing I couldn't find. 2016-10-13-08-56-43--1652818565.jpg images-7.jpg pics borrowed from Google. Mine can be seen in sotd thread.
  8. Thanks Herm, for the most part the razor is nickel over brass (photo editing darkened up the pic, and there is some brassing on the handle), except for the collar above the handle barrel, and the bottom inner barrel and knob. I cant figure out that these two metals are. They are a dark grey even when polished and are not magnetic, possibly Aluminum or Pewter? . Here is my pic before photo editing so you can see the true nature of the razor.

  14. Gillette New Standard + Polsilver blade = 2 pass BBS shave. The razor seemed very mild today. This soap is something else, super easy lather, very slick and protective. Be well everyone!
