    Hey, grats on buying what I personally think is one of the best vintage DE razors out there. I did a write-up somewhere on the forum here if you want more of my ramblings about it.
    It seems big and kinda clumsy at first - but when you shave with it it all comes together miraculously. It's on the mild side but produces a fantastic shave. I'm keeping mine for good.
    Do post pics when you get it! :)

    If I remember correctly - speaking to the adjustable aspect of the razor - 'the lower the number the more aggressive the shave' but not 100% sure.

    Enabler. :(
    Someone has one on eBay right now. BIN $49.99 or best offer. Seeing as how the insert and instructions were missing, I generously offered $35.

    The seller counteroffered $47.

    PASS!

    I swear they used to be all over the place a year ago for 5-15 bucks. Now they seem to often start out at $75.
    Sigh, I hope this wetshaving craze dies down so prices on vintage shaving gear will drop :D

    Cooper MonoBilts and Shake Sharps used to be cheap too.

    A pass around and some good reviews will do wonders to the price. I saw a boxed Cooper MonoBilt with the wrong blades sell for almost $200 last month. Shake Sharps used to sell for $25-35. Now they tend to go for $50 and up.

    Wetshaving forums are the bane of quiet collectors like you and I. *walks away whistling*

    I got mine when I recognized it in an inexpensive lot. The seller didn't know what he had.
