hello all i have been looking at my local selling pages and one of these cut throats has come up for 40 gbp. it is completly un used and is in a wooden presentation box i have no experience with this make of razor. i have only ever used a feather ss. Is it worth a look or is it some cheap Chinese knock off??? many thanks for any help. nathan Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
Warning!! This razor has been sold in excellent condition, w/box for $40.00, twice, on eBay. $6.99 w/o box. Probably cheap Pakistani razors
I would take any $6 Chinese Gold Dollar, over rolling the dice with the AP Donovan. At least the Gold Dollar can be honed to give excellent shaves.
thanks for the imput guys i think i will steel clear. thought i might have found myself a bargin. never mind. Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk
If you want a guaranteed shave ready, quality razor, Whipped Dog does really good work. I have heard from many, around here, that they do a great job. For a starter razor, perhaps a "Sight Unseen" would be the route to go. http://www.whippeddog.com/products/find/straight-razors-1/page:2
From that picture, I would lay odds on it being a letter opener, but I don't know anything about the name.
i have heard whipped dog mentioned many times i have been on there website and had a look a few times. i am using a feather artist club ss at the moment its the only razor i own. i am currently saving for a koraat custom. i just saw the razor on gumtree and wondered if it was a bargin. as always thanks for all your help guys.
