C-Mon Cadillac by Peter J. Michels - Gold Wash Intact - Auction

C-Mon Cadillac by Peter J. Michels. Average width is a hair under 6/8 (average width is 0.73 inches) and gold wash is intact. Keened it up this past weekend (it does take a nice edge) and test shaved (it was smooth). Then soaked in Barbisol and it's ready to go. It's a nice and relatively inexpensive gem, even though it's not 150 years old - as you can read below in a very good post from Sharptonn, it's only been in production in the current iteration for about 10 years. Did I mention it's pretty, takes a great edge, and is a very nice shaver as well?

EDIT: Just had a chance a bit ago to do a deep dive on this razor. Can't find it being sold new anyplace right now and there are few that I can find as completed sales on eBay. Thanks to Sharptonn I realize this shaves like a Dovo because in all probability it is a Dovo. I did find an offer by C-MON for it from about 4 years ago and it seems to have settled into a price range between $60 and about $70. So I'm going to just list it as a sale and a flat $67 ($57 for the blade and $10 to ship USPS Priority Mail). Sorry for the confusion - I was just as confused.

So this is now a straight up sale asking $67 including shipping/insurance/tracking to the US. IT'S NO LONGER AN AUCTION

Please only requests to ship to US and Canada. Other locations PM me first to see if we can get it shipped there safely and economically. Feel free to post any questions or PM them to me.

Would that not be one of the more recent 'Cmons'?

I don't recall seeing it but I'll check. That said, I'm thinking I do not have it.

I'm thinking just post your bid - unless we do it a different way here, but the few I've seen just have posted bids.

Sorry but I just don't know. It's certainly at least 5 years old (when I got this one) but I'm not sure when this was made. Basically why I don't know what to ask for it.

Those came out about 10 years ago. Seems someone owns the PJM name and associated logos. They also made a Blackie. I guess it was a short-lived thing.
Was some talk about them. I think the consensus was that Dovo made them.
Should be as good as a current-production Dovo?

Come to think of it, it DOES shave like a few Dovos I've had. Make sense then. Thanks!

I was wondering about that when I saw the nail head type pins and not the traditional pinning.

The old Cadillacs are hard to see these days.
I remember them having clear scales. Found one with scales from another CMon, I think

Anyhoo, A cool razor. Likely just as rare as the original?
Betcha Dovo made the old 50's ones as well.
Bid often, Gents! :D

Considered sold. I will await to see if it is still truly available and will send payment. Surprised for that amount even being a new gen CMON that it took this long to sell!

If it shaves anything like a Dr. Balfanz I have that is also a Dovo created razor it will be a jewel for sure.
