Old Type/Pre-War Hybrid

I always liked the posts on Gillette Old Type razors, but wanted to have a closed comb version. So I took a pretty cruddy Pre-War Tech bottom plate, drilled a couple of holes, and removed the corrosion on it. @twhite ceramic coated it black so I could match it to a handle with a carbon fiber barrel, also from Tom. And this is what I came up with.............

 

Fine work

 

Thanks David.

 

very cool Jim,how does it shave..looks good..

 

Thanks Gary. I'll know after the use of the De-Vette.

 

Ingenious. Hope it shaves as well as it looks. Let us know

 

Very nice!

 

What a great looking piece and a fun addition to your collection!

 

Looks awesome! Hopefully it shaves half as great as it looks!
