Burham razor, 1909

[homh]

I have a Burham razor with a patent date of July 6, 1909.

What type of blade was used in this razor? Is there any type of modern blade that can be used in this razor? Any stories out there about this company? It looks like an interesting razor

you can use a SE blade in one. it takes a bit of getting used to as its really light, but its a good shaver.

Thanks Dave. I didnt think a SE blade would fit but a little pushing it all the way up and it does. :eek:

I will have to give it a try. It reminds me a little of the shavette straight razor, held vertical.

it just takes a bit to get used to because its so damn light :lol:
