Here's a few classy DE razors to add to your shaving rotation or your vintage display collection. Something for everyone -- at reasonable prices. PM if you are interested. Payment via Paypal -- prices include shipping in the USA via USPS priority mail. Outside of the USA, check for additional postage charges. First up is the classic early 1950s German made Rotbart #15. This relatively light weight razor is somewhat aggressive with a bit more blade exposure than the USA made Tech razors. The 1st one of these 2 was opened to inspect & display the razor. The other has never been opened -- totally NOS. This unwrapped razor is offered for $27. This still wrapped NOS razor offered for $32. SOLD Next is the inimitable British-made Rocket HD. This 1950s nickel-plated DE razor is a fantastic shaver and has held up incredibly well. Sorry that the case for this razor is missing, but the razor is in great condition and will work just as well without the case. This pristine razor is offered for $56. SOLD Here's one of the Lady Gillette beauties -- the baby blue one -- unfortunately without its distinctive case. The razor itself is in excellent condition -- no fading or scratches, the stars are as bright as when new. This Lady Gillette is offered for $33. Next is an unusual presentation for a vintage British #15 open comb Aristocrat. Instead of being delivered in its usual metal case, this #15 was found in this soft leather carrying case with 2 blade cases. The razor is in good condition -- there are some scratches on the head that could be resolved with replating, but I wanted to leave it for the next owner to resolve. The shave quality is as good as any #15, but cosmetically it is not up to the same quality as I had hoped. In addition, this #15 is of the style where the TTO knob unscrews and then you have to push the knob in order to open the heads. This design preceded the later style where the twisting of the TTO knob opens the heads. Again, this is not a problem, but it is different from some of the other #15s. You can see the wear on the rhodium finish on the head. A hefty, incredibly well-made razor that should be experienced by any true DE shaving aficionado. Offered for $105. SOLD And finally a practically new Merkur C42, an HD head, with a 1904 handle. A simple and classy open comb razor that can be a simple introduction to traditional double edged wet shaving. Offered for $19 delivered in the USA. Slightly higher elsewhere.
I made an error in my initial posting of the price for the Lady Gillette. The price is correct now -- $33.00.
