I have recently acquired 3 vintage razors. 2 of the razors are user grade and I think fairly priced.
The first razor is a I believe a 1934 "New" which has lost all the gold plating on the top cap and most if not all on the handle as well but it looks nice with the gold base plate and copper color top cap and copper colored handle. As you can see the base plate has all the teeth and they are all straight.
The second razor is a bit of a frankenrazor, it has what I believe to be a Old type top cap and base plate with a ball end Tech handle. It has brassing on all parts but it does have all the teeth and they are all straight. I am thinking about possibly sending this out to have it replated in nickle.

This third razor I believe to be a 1930 "New" Newport gold razor that came in a 1934 "New" red and black case. As you can see from the photos this razor appears to have only been used maybe a few times at most if it has been used at all. I found this razor at a yard sale for $7.00

I need to get some new blades before I try these. right now all I have are some SuperMax blades. As soon as I get some I am going to have a go with all of these razors. :thumbup:
