German Travel Razor

Thats all I know about it. Anyone know any more? The handle has another section inside and they ate threaded to fit together.

I wish I could help, but try to haggle them to come down.

 

I can get them down about 14 bucks.

@gorgo2 can you help or @PLANofMAN ?

 

It looks like a copy of an Old Type head. I ran across a German travel razor last year. It shaves really good. Mine did not have a case, but it took some work cleaning up.

Sorry man, no clue. $14 might be worth it if it shaves as well as J. says. Wish I could help more!

 

I have three different ones (brands), two with cases, one without. They appear to have been made between WW-I and WW-II, but that's as far as I could get.

 

Want one? I will mail it out to you. I have a couple. They shave good. Not $35 good though.

 

I've seen a few like that without brands, just Germany on it. Tried to get one or two at Ebay, but always get outbid or selling for more than I would buy it for. But I have read that they are good shavers, similar to a Gillette Old type.

 

Yup that is true. The handles are smaller but still work well.

 

These looks sweet! I just found a Gillette tuckaway but swmbo says I can't get it yet. I think these traveling razors would be awesome to have! I'm going to be flying a lot for my career haha. Hopefully I can get my hands on one someday

I have a Cosmo razor made in germany in the 20's; looks very similar. It's a real nice mild shave. I really like it!

 

The german travel razors usually go for about $20 on ebay.

 

Yeah, that's probably what I could talk this antique store into letting me get the Gillette tuckaway, but money's pretty tight right now. (About to change jobs). So I'll just have to be patient

I know the feeling ... that's why I restore brushes ... been out of work 10 months.

 

This kit much smaller than a tuckaway btw. I have one and this is half the size!

I found a travel pouch at Maggard Razors and ordered it for this razor. The razor turns out to be a very good shaving razor, so it will probably be my goto razor for traveling.

 

That looks like the same razor. The kit I saw also looked like it had a stone in the cardboard tube for the blades. The bottom half of the handle is slightly different otherwise very similar.

Ended up talking swmbo into letting me get the tuckaway! Got it for $35

Prob would have sold you mine for that! I need to either find a minty Crat or have one replated. Need to raise some funds.
