    Today's shave, Super Speed styled Canadian Rocket. You can see it is not a 40s style American Super Speed by the lack of made in the USA and other patent markings. Mild razor, decent shave with a Bic blade. I would compare this more so with a Black Tip Super Speed shave wise which was produced the same year as the date code on this which is X 1 than your standard 40s style Super Speed.

    Yesterday was fun except that blade was used one time too many.
