    Waiting for this beauty to arrive. Paid more than what I was comfortable with. But figured to have what I hope is a nos set seemed worth it.

    That's a nice one :happy088: Seller seems to be pretty clueless though judging by the way he mounted the baseplate :p

    Gotta love a happy ending. Those really are phenomenal shavers. Here's another picture of that particular razor.

    I normally don't care for chome plating on razors, but the MonoBilt is a rare exception. Please tag me in in your SOTD with it, I look forward to your review.

    Do you happen to know what metal the razor is constructed of ? Is it brass ?

    Solid brass, copper plated, then nickel plated, then chrome plated. The plating is remarkably durable.

    Not bad for being 90 years old. Those little scratches could probably be polished out, but they are not as noticeable as the camera makes them look. None of them penetrate the plating.

    These weigh in around 73 grams. About the same as an old Aristocrat or Rocket HD.
