    What's a safety-ette razor? Never head of it.

    Ahh, I just googled it. I didn't know that is what they were called. I see those all the time at antique stores

    Seen about a half dozen Curve-fit razors in every antique shop I walk in......they look close, but this safety-ette is proving elusive!! My problem lies in the fact that they haven't made the Specialty blades for this unit since Montgomery wards delivered on carriages, and I picked up 4 cases of NOS blades.....before I found the razor let me know where in San Jose you saw one, and I'll be there in three hours!!

    Yes sir Butzy, made in very small quantity for a very short time and marketed to women.....

    just curious, why don't you just get her one of the less-elusive female model razors? anything special about the one you're looking for?
    One man's opinion...
