Congratulations beautiful collection

 

thank you

 

I only own Two Tech's both do nice job of Shaving & Beard Removal. I keep think about a NEW MODERN SUPER Razor like a Y, W, L, or other Brand. Then I Shave with my Vintage Gillettes, always asking why do I want SUPER RAZOR?. Difficult justification.

 

what is y,w,l?i've heard carbon mild razor is like rfb tech is that true?https://carbonshavingco.com/collections/cx-safety-razors/products/cx-316l-safety-razor
everything is "sold out" lol
i would try feather but alignment sucks for expensive razor

Well done, Gary .

 

In the older shavers made Pre WWII often they do better with a thicker carbon blade that often bends to the shape of the shaver. One model of shaving blade like this still made is the Treet Carbon Steel and then one stainless steel model I forget the brand and model are made thicker for these old shavers that I forget the model and company. I do want to say Dorco 300 and Dorco 301 could still be thick enough to use in the shaver. I have used these blades the Dorco 300 that came with my Micro Touch One and they were very thick for a modern blade in 2017 when I got my first Made in USA Personna 100 pack and felt the difference.
