Thread: Gotta razors

I have a 120 Gotta with black scales, no logo on the scales. It shaves like a dream.

Thought id reuse this thread, but yeah i've seen a gotta razor on ebay, and the thing is, all of the gotta razors ive seen say ground in germany, but the one i see says ground in england?.

Were they made in both countries?.

Cheers Mark~

I felt the need to join in...

The top one is my most recent addition and is in the must be restored pile, as you can see, it needs a fair bit of cleaning, has anyone got any tips on cleaning the blade without loosing the goldwash or am I resigned to mirror finishing this little lovely and just admiring the plain but lovely scales?

The second it a little tarnished but still in good condition, and so far has shaved well, it is currently also my razor for refining honing.

I have a question . does anyone else think my Flik 750 is very similar in appearance to the Gotta, They're both German made, both silver steel, and use a similar lettering on the shank (?) and if so is there any connection ?

I have a FLIC GOLD and wondered the same thing. IN saying that, the etching, goldwash and font used is exactly the same as the PUMA GOLD that I have.

Here is my Gotta 120 Superfine ... it's been less than a month since the factory edge was first honed (thanks Oz)
