    Woot! It's an '88 with a plastic bottom but it's in immaculate condition! Looks nearly brand new instead of 26 years old. Mechanics are crisp! Can't wait to use it tomorrow! *squeeee*

    Alright, maybe I haven't paid attention, but why is '88 significant? A Childs birth year?

    The year isn't significant :) I was just mentioning it in full disclosure. My birth year is '67 but it's nearly impossible to find one in decent condition at a reasonable price anymore..

    Nice dude, I just got my Grandfathers, which just so happens to be my Birth year razor. Start on a low setting, I'd say around a 3-4. Anyway Congratulations.

    Nice find and a great razor. I have one on the den counter along with a Red Tip.....rotate them every other day. The long handle stays there and the Red Tip is rotated with a Fatboy/Slim Adj/Krona. If you have a Voskhod, load it in this razor...you will be pleasantly surprised.;)

    Thank You!
    You've reminded me of all the great shaves I gotten from my Super Adjustable. I put down my Schick Injectors, which I'm enjoying, and used the Black Beauty.
