Yeah, but also a sign of quality. All of my 3 pin razors are top notch.

That's a beauty. Looks like it was made for the French market.

I don't agree that's it is either a stopper or a sign of quality. Most straights are based on the size of the wedge to restrict how far the blade falls into the scales and I've yet to come across a razor that relies on the middle pin to do this.

As far as quality is concerned, I've seen bog standard razors in black celluloid scales with a mid pin but I've yet to see it used in, say, Ivory or other top quality scales.

Not like you to disagree Rob...:p

3 pin razors and ivory scales are from different eras, years apart.

Can only speak of razors that have crossed my path, all 3 pin razors have been above average in looks and quality, fit and finish. Do they shave any better?...:shrug:

All of the ones I have seen are from Germany...
