    Top razor - flare tip superspeed In this case, the code B4 means that it was made in the 4th quarter of 1956.
    middle razor - ball end travel tech (does this one have a date code as well?)
    bottom razor - ball end tech (no date code means that this one was made between 1939 and 1950)

    What you have is some great daily shavers. Im a huge Tech fan and seem to get my best shaves with them.

    M1 on a travel tech would be 1st quarter 1967.

    Of the three, my favorite is the regular ball end tech. I use these frequently.

    The Tech, while billed as mild by most who use them, is quite possibly the only shaver you will ever need.

    Wanting more is another matter entirely...
