    Saturday shave:
    Weekend in Malibu soap
    Everready 100 brush with synthetic knot
    Moroccan cedar and mint balm
    Vintage Gillette Blue blade
    1941 Ranger Tech razor

    Figured out that I have this razor in my collection and did not even know it was somewhat rare...just thought it was an early iteration of the more common superspeed.[​IMG][​IMG]

    Reshave to confirm if this was or wasn't the same as the first iteration of the 40s style super speed. Answer is no and I screwed up on my initial impressions. It is a very close shave but no BBS cigar for under the chin. It would probably get someone with finer hair across that line though.

    Thanks Gary. :) I've owned it for a couple years & never really knew why it had no gillette markings til I recently saw one packaged as Rotbart. A mild but very nice shaver. Capture+_2021-01-15-23-31-17_20210116200448878.jpg
