    If you are interested, I can send you a couple of other lesser known SE’s to test out. Slight mods needed. Removing spine only.

    The Clauss a razor we are both familiar with though it has more blade exposure can shave not as aggressive since it can cut hair much more efficiently and smoothly when used in the same manner. They are about the same for closeness of shave.

    U.S. based here. Thanks for the offer though. I don't see to many for sale even on the bay.
    And the U.S. has even fewer of the black handle one I really want.

    Thur 19th March
    The Black Handled ones were made in UK. In fact most were produced in UK I believe, hence the scarcity in USA. I did sell one on to Mr Tom White
    and found labelling the parcel a pain. I think the only black handled one I have left is NOS and a keeper.
    My Original collection, many passed on to shaving friends.

    I normally enjoy Shaves with this Razor, but this relatively fresh blade did not want to work. I do not often use a Chick blade, having discovered the Schick Proline quite early on in my Injector days.

    Wow. Beautiful collection. Oddly I'm not usually a big fan of yellow gold but on razors I really like it. I also don't usually go for purple but on the PAL and one of the pens I made someone It really looked good. I was very tempted to keep the pen, it was purple with white swirls. So I guess the purple collar with white handle most spark the same fire.
    Do any of the white handles have the same taper as the black? I've seen one medium gray that appeared to.

    After an awful Shave with this Razor due to apparent blade failure, it was only on its 3rd use and this Razor normally Shaves well. With a fresh blade the Shave was really smooth and the finish was truly excellent making up for the disaster yesterday.

    When first delivered this Razor had a defective blade retention plate, I overcame this problem by borrowing a No2 plate from my Oren Razor. I Shaved very successfully with the No2 plate, though on the mild side. I asked for and got a No3 plate and have used it with different blades . The Shaves seem to be getting better and better, the one this morning was in lieu of an Injector one and to say it was good would be an understatement.
    In fact I will do a repeat tomorrow before resuming my Injector rotation.
