What's new

Newbie from Norway

My Parat is a bit younger than I first thought, but that doesn't really matter. Thanks for all the info!
Mine has the Gillette diamond logo and "Made in England" and of course the Brit pat number.

Doesn't matter at all ... their quality is superb, you can't go wrong with these!

Enjoy it, and enjoy the fora.
 
Welcome. Nice to se fellow Norwegians in here. As mentioned earlier, that's not a starter kit. More like a portable barbershop. Enjoy the shaves!
 
Welcome to B&B! You're all in!
Thanks! That was the idea too!

Welcome to the group grimfer!
Thank you!

Welcome! That isn't a starter kit. It is a fully stocked shave den!
Thanks! Yes, I believe it is sufficient. For now. :D

Takk til deg! Yes, my shaving routine has changed drastically from being being a chore to an enjoyable break from everyday life!

Welcome aboard!
Thank you!
 
The #52 set is not a Parat, it is a Rocket, 52A:

Or the 52:

This is the Parat , notice how the neck doesn't have the groove, the handle is thinner and the knob is the same diameter as the handle:

There's other earlier Rockets, with the handle similar to the Parat's but the knob is slightly larger than the handle.

Excellent info.
