Ok, name THIS rarely seen razor, for Friday/ 29th

**amishmotorboat** · 06-29-2012, 05:04 PM

This razor comes with 3 settings.
normal, tilted head, and crazily tilted head.

Hints? hmmm. If San Francisco had been first settled by Germans, football fans might appreciate this razor.

Haven't got a clue but I like the tilt feature.

Apollo?

**amishmotorboat** · 06-29-2012, 08:55 PM

It's a hyphenated name.
Hint for the first part... decay.
Hint for the second part... 79

Rot-80

You're close, Alex, but 80 would be a hint for a Merkur.

Rotbart 49?

It appears to be made by the same company as the Erwil-Luxus. Same handle which doubles as a styptic pencil holder.
edit: ok, almost certainly made by Ern and Wills. Here are some of the Ern and Wills brand names.
'Ascota', 'Erwil-Gold', 'Erwil-Luxus', 'Gold-Stern', 'Gold-Strom', 'Rheinkrone', 'Ruhr-Gold', 'Sensit', 'Vivat'.

This particular one is absent from the list.

That seems likely.

It's slightly higher priced than the Rot-Platin

**amishmotorboat** · 06-30-2012, 01:51 PM

Ok, I'm no good at this.
It's a Rot-Gold. This one appears to have been made by Ern and Wills in Germany
An exactly identical one, except for the name, was made in Holland and called the Indiana.

That one is really interesting, Amish . . . I like the ability to adjust the slant! How does it shave?

Have not yet had the opportunity, but I won't be using it at an angle. I haven't much appreciated any other with a tilted head, so I'll be using this in it's normal position.
