2nd shave and it was much better and a little bit closer with the Ladas blade. This shave was right in the same ballpark as the New DeLuxe using either blade. There doesn't seem to be any alignment issues so right now pending further shaves I want chalk it up to the blade edges themselves not being consistent on each side for the same blade since these shaves were all with edges factory sharpened.

Next up is the New long comb.

Normally, I would have shaved with my 48-50 Aristocrat on my mom's birthday, however she was amazed by this razor, so I took it off the shelf for her. It gets used 1/month at least. The razor was priced at ~$20, if I remember correctly.
"Do you know what you have here?"
"No."
I told her what it was and possibly worth, which was more than I could do. She asked me what I would be able to pay for it(which was less).
She let me buy it for what I could manage.
Easily the most exciting day in my "vintage razor moments".

 

New Deluxe Belmont / Nacet
Wonderful shave. I’m trying the New Deluxe, on loan from a friend. I now will be looking to buy a New Deluxe Belmont, it’s a terrific Razor!
