To be fair the other member had finnished with it and it was he that suggested that he send it direct to you once I had explained that another member was interested it trying it out, very good of him to save me time and money by sending it direct to you. I'm pleased you enjoyed using it so much. :) P.

The Flying Wing probably is the mildest of the three but still pretty efficient.
They knew how to make quality razors, I haven't tried any of the Contour models but from what I've read, I'm not missing out.

Yes I agree totally, they knew their stuff when it came to making razor's, I don't know about the Contour but the same thing happened to Gillette in the mid 70s, quality went out of the window and was never to been seen again..... Give me vintage be it razors, car's or motorcycles, can't beat them. :)
