Picked this one up from an antique store today. The plating is almost nonexistent on the handle, there's pitting on the adjuster ring, and more plate loss under and inside the head. Everything works though, and after cleaning and polishing it up it actually looks kind of cool with the different metals in the handle. I'll shave with it tomorrow, and since I've been using my nice Fatboy this week it should be easy to tell if this one is "off". It all looks like it should shave fine, but I want to give it a try before it goes up on ebay.
