    there is a wonderful beauty in simplicity and pure function, gold and so on is not needed for a blade to shine at its best

    I'm really not a fan either, they're a bit too in your face for me. I'm no fan of razors with their grind etched on either. I do quite like the old school engravings though - I think they have a bit more about them.

    I doubt I will ever buy a gold wash glad dovo - vintage for me.

    I thought I was in a minority in not liking gold on blades. Seems not. Having said that, you're making me chuckle, gugi.

    I agree my gold belongs in my vault not on my blades. And because have neither vault nor gold I don't want to waste it on flashy bling bling razors

    I hate gold on razors. The few I have that have it, as soon as it starts to show the slightest signs of wear I take it all off. Even worse than that is a Dorko I have which has green all over the entire blade. Yuk.

    I feel your pain and stand ready to assist. Please feel free to dump all gold chased razors on my door step or into my mail box at any time.

    No can do I'm afraid. Already cleaned it off the only one I ever bought. was my first, a new TI, lovely shaver, looks even better without the bling to my eyes.

    I have to say the bling appeals a bit to me as well.
