Before going to Ebay (I hate that place), I'm selling 2 identical Pre-1951, TTO/Tech Super Speeds. Both are very clean, shave very well & in perfect working order.

The one on the left has some patchy discoloration on the handle (as most of them do), but otherwise is perfect....$18.00 OBO

The second one (on the right) could pass as brand new & is in Pristine condition! ....$35.00 OBO

If the one in pristine condition is available I'll take it.

Since I had been using the SS with the blotchy handle, I decided to clean it up for sale. I boiled up some water in my Toastmaster hot pot & poured in into a tall cup with the razor a scoop of Oxy-Clean in it (if you try this, be forwarned that it will foam out of the cup...no matter how tall it is)!

So I waited about 40-mins until the water was just medium-hot & low & behold, every bit of the handle discoloration dissappeared. I gave it a once over with a toothbrush under cold water & it is as clean & Pristine as the other Super Speed (see the image below). So much so, that I can not really tell them apart.

Anyway, since the miracle clean-up, I am changing the price to $35.00, OBO for the 1st Super Speed. Hope this is Kosher as far as this board goes.......
