My totally new Starter Shaving Kit (from La Barbiera [barring the ASL]) was great. I usually only change one thing at a time, but today I had four totally new (to me) items. Result: a very nice BBS shave.:w00t:

A fine shave. :biggrin:

My new Lord L5 (complete with the new plastic OC baseplate) turned up today, so I HAD TO use it (with the standard SB baseplate that is). My Lord Razors education is just beginning. Now I know that the L5 is a Tech clone and the L6 is a DE89/R89 clone.

I think I'll try out the L5's plastic OC baseplate next shave.


Happy shaves guys. :cornut:

I've been eyeing the L5. It's just a matter of time before I get one. Lord also has click range plastic Silver Star de razors.

RazorBladesClub sells them on eBay.com
That's a Lord branded "Cool Click," Thom.

Barring the cap printing, it looks identical to the Gillette Super Click:

I'm guessing that one manufacturer makes ALL the "click" razors (simply changing the cap name/logo to suit their customers).
Cal, here is the link they exist. As to where to purchase. I'm not sure. I'm going to try to contact Lord. LORD International Co - https://www.lordshave.net/product_detail/Shaving/Silver_Star/Safety_Razors/Safety_Razor__Model_Click_/SS_10/332
Thank you for the link, Rave.:thumbup1: If you get a response from Lord please let me know.
RazorBladesClub sells it over auction sites.
On the eBay link it says (in bold red) "Does not ship to United Kingdom."

I checked the RBC Razors page. It doesn't show there (for me anyway [maybe for you?]).
