What is 'THE' razor to have? Like a watch it is Rolex, fountain pens it is 1929 Parker Senior Duofold and guitars it is a 1957 Fender Stratocaster?
Don't know if THE razor exists. Maybe a gold toggle? If cost wasn't an issue that's what I'd go after.
The answer to all those kinds of questions is 42. Thanks for posting the picture Dave. I do not have one of those to post. The OC1912 would run a close second to a lather catcher in the top razor.
thank you sir. that WAS mine actually. thepossum is the current proud owner. thats what coldplay says.
That beautiful '11 Elite GEM Jr that I purchased from Dave is my favorite razor period. Very smooth shaver, great balance. An absolutely wonderful razor. Thanks Dave. By the way, Fuzzy, you ever get a chance to put your hands on one of these you should do it. It is the best of the lather catchers for sure.
So you're looking for razors that grant you status among collectors? You'll want a rhodium toggle. Or maybe a mint,not "minty", 195 (Fatboy prototype that has the adjust at the bottom of the handle.) But the real razor to have is an old type open comb AND a 1912 GEM, ever ready or star (they're all the same razor, I think). No, no, no. The correct answer is 23 skidoo. have fun guessing that reference.
I am an old type snob so it is easy for me to say a double ring old type but I would have to say the ROLEX is a British Gillette #66 Aristocrat.
