I'm new to DE shaving. On a whim I snapped up a cheap razor from eBay. It appears to be a 1968 (code N2) travel tech with an aluminium handle. The seller described it as "mint", it still has the little card, blade substitute and the knurling on the handle is very crisp. However, the nickel plating is bubbling on the cap and one of the combs. It came in a little carry-case with a Gillette Super Stainless box, but with only one blade in it. So a few questions:
1 - Is this worth anything to a collector? Should I sell it or just go ahead and use it?
2 - What are these like to shave with? Since I'm new to this I'm still trying to calibrate myself to what is aggressive and what's mild.
Thanks in advance for your help.
