    Default Genco and other Americans

    Learning about straights, I like what I have read about the gencos. Can someone tell me a little about their history? Also could someone talk about any other razors in that same class that I might keep my eyes open for? I am studying to learn what I might like for my first razor (And yes, I will be keeping my eye on the BST. LOL)
    I think I am becoming boaring!:thumbup:

    The Genco plant in Geneva was the largest in the world at one time making several thousand razors a day! Read more here:

    Its a total waste of your money. Just send it to me for proper disposal.
