    Default Quality Question

    I recently saw a razor that looks to be a quality product but is not on the SRP list of good or bad razors.

    Does anyone know the quality/value of S.R. Droescher blue diamond model?

    I've had a few SRD razors, and they've been great. I don't know about the blue diamond in particular, but I would assume it too would be a quality razor.

    I have a gold bug and its a great razor. No reason to doubt the one you are looking at would be great too.

    any of the ones i've had has been as good or better as the ducks. for what i know may have been made by the same companies, as both brands are just vendors.

    Thank you, I will do a little more research and follow up on it.

    The list in the Wiki is neither comprehensive nor exhaustive. Imagine us putting all the Solingen manufacturers from the 19th and early 20th centuries in there...

    I have found that if a razor is vintage, there must be a reason why it is still around. I find it hard to imagine Zeepk razors becoming an heirloom in the 22nd century. "Chaps, my grandfather couldn't shave with it, neither could my father - it must be good, no?"
