    I found this very nice Gillette 195 E4 in an Antique shop today at a good price. I couldn't pass it up. The case is ratty, but the razor is in excellent shape, and the blade holder looks full.

    He has some very beautiful handles on his Etsy site.

    Beautiful Jim! Of all the adjustable Gillettes I've owned, the E-4 Fat Boy has given me the best shaves.

    Your buddy does some nice work. Nice prices as well. But I need another brush like I need a hole in the head. I'm waiting on my StarCraft and my Wildwest Brushworks one.

    Thank you.......Some tooth powder and a soft toothbrush followed by an ultrasonic cleaner worked wonders with the razor and the box had a couple of applications of Renaissance Wax.

    Had quite the haul today.
    Gillette slim in case with blade holder dirty dirty but should clean up
    Nice gold gillette tech no date codes no triangle holes. Ideas on date?

    English tech in case and shipper missing plating on cap but should shave well. Will know shortly.
    Rubberset brush I liked the aluminum and wood
    Straight razor. Will confirm name after clean up. She’s dirty. [​IMG]

    Boy, is that a unicorn these days. I have four of those razors but finding a box with no cracks has been frustrating. Congrats!

    I love techs and I agree with you about the Auto Strop razors.
