    What in your opinion are the qualities of an excellent razor and do they exist?

    Sure I've said this before, but many years ago (12?) we were all enthusing about Weber razors, stainless steel razor ( almost unknown back then) made in the states. You had to order them directly from him. Compared to the early feather, Ikon and ATT stainless razors these were astonishing. A...

    1959 Fat Boy & Astra SP = Rough as hell?

    Interesting- About 10 years ago I bought a nice fatboy and had it replated, lovely razor and it always shaved really well with Astra's. But then (as you do) I sold it to buy some super duper stainless overpriced pos which inevitably got sold sold on. Fast forward to a couple of years ago and I...

    Option 5 razor

    Heard of these? I bought one a couple of years ago, used it once or twice and put it back in its box in my toy box. Forgot all about it. Anyway I was looking for something else yesterday evening and found it, sitting there unloved. I used it this morning and I was pleasantly surprised. It...

    What is (was) your best razor - actually providing your best shave?

    Out of all my DE's the best I use is my Weber polished. It just works. Very. Well! Second best is my scruffy but mechanically good 1960 Fatboy, classic quality!

    Which adjustable or just a new DE

    Over many years I've bought and sold so many Razors I really can't remember what they all were! I've owned several adjustables, but now settled on a Rockwell 6C kit (very good but can it truly be called an adjustable?) and the King of all of them- Gillette Fatboy This never fails to amaze me...

    Safety razors, that are NOT made of zamak/pot metal/die-cast zinc...?

    If you can find one a Weber (of any type) is unbeatable. All stainless and made in the USA

    Did I do OK?

    Just won this on E-Bay, takes me back to when I started shaving 41 years ago! An unused boxed Gillette Techmatic plus two blister packed blade cartridges and an instruction leaflet- all for the princely sum of £16 plus £2.95 postage. Was I robbed? :eek:

    What is the mildest most efficient DE razor?

    Interesting thread- My mild but efficient razor would be a Weber (in my case the polished stainless example) with an Astra blade. Effortless shave you could do with your eyes shut but feel shaved for a day and a half!
