Welcome, gentlemen to this work in progress. Follow the questions to work out what razor you have - be it an ebay auction with a mystery razor, or that $0.50 crusty number you found at a garage sale!
There will be errors here and there, so post in this thread and ill update it! If you have any better pictures then let me know and I'll add them too! (I will clean out the thread as suggested changes are made)
Also - If you can help with more detail within each category, please let me know and we can add some more questions (eg, to sort out all the different Aristocrats)
