Birth year razor

Very cool. Thanks for that.

 

I have been on the hunt for a nice B3 Flare Tip.

 

Here are some B.I.N. NOS Gem Contour II razors for sale. I don't know if the packaging is from the 80s but it is the right style one that would have been sold in 1981.

You can see the 3 styles here. The one on the right with the knurling is the last iteration and very last known Gem SE razor to be made,

It's just another aspect of the hobby that makes it fun.
And it's a great justification for buying yet another razor.
