Henson Ti22 +++. It came with the original handle but I like shorter handles so swapped for a Yaqi I had on hand and the brushed finished matches the Ti really well in my opinion.
According to Mr.Razor it should be a 4 piece Tech set so perhaps you have a mismatched handle.My real question though, that I'm hoping someone here might be able to help with - I'm wondering about the soft case the Tech came in. What do I have here? The razor is Canadian and the case says Canada but do I have a mismatched set? Is it a military set? I've never seen the Khaki sets before with the Fat Handled Techs so I'm not really sure.
For what it's worth it's the "pre-war" model with the triangular base plate holes (so about 1938-1945) - but I thought the Khaki sets were much older than that? Any insight would be appreciated! Thanks!

Sweet haul. You will enjoy the Red Tip Rocket.The last couple years after building a decent collection I've stepped back from aquiring new razors. Mostly just been shaving and buying new soaps occasionally. On Saturday though I was wandering around an antique mall where I've not previously had much luck finding Gillette razors. This time though, all in one in vendor display case I came across quite the score. A Canadian Fat Handle Tech, Red Tip Rocket and a Fatboy. All of them full of soap and crud but underneath in immaculate condition once they were gently cleaned up. $43CDN for all three (incredibly cheap around here compared to what I've normally found in the wild)

It's RAD (Razor Acquisition Disorder).I have a question, is it a sickness or what, why can't we stop buying razors all the time ?
We need to try out new razors that might end up in a drawer.
