    I've seen some Otto blackies in primo shape, but the prices! $$$$$$ :eek::eek::eek:
    The greenies are supposedly harder to find in decent shape. Some claim this is due to a greater susceptibility of the lighter celluloid to the dreaded rot.
    I don't know if this is true or more cyber-folklore...

    Some background on the individual from whom this razor garnered its appellation:
    From the "German Resistance Memorial Site" Hans Otto
