cool razor.they are called the prewar as your example was made was made mostly in 1939-40,aka pre war for the U.S.your example (civilian) pre war stopped production when war time srarted and the bakelite and steel examples were made.civilian razors were then restarted in '46,no triangular techs made at this point,but left over mid war designs.england didin't have a "tech",never called one in those days,and canadian made triangular slot techs are the only civilian type nickel/brass razer i have seen in khaki soft and hard military cases.

Tried the Slim on 7 with a Shark (2) not the greatest success. Could just be me, or the Shark. But I still like the razor, even though some find it boring!
