Puma razor
Hey all,
I've been looking at a vintage Puma Solingen razor thats up for purchase. Before going ahead with it, I wanted to get a feel of what other members thought about Puma razors.

Pumas are fantastic razors and give top-knotch shaves. You really can't go wrong if you find one in good shape...

Agreed. I have several Puma's. They're all great shavers, and they take an edge like nobody's business. My Puma Gold is one of my favorite shavers.

Puma razors are among a select group of razors that are regarded as the best of the best and the prices usually reflect that. I have 3 myself.

Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

No-brainer. If it's in good or serviceable condition just buy it

Puma razors, as already mentioned, one of the best razors made and my daily shaver.

The only reason I'm hesitant about buying the razor is that there is some pitting near the blade. I'm very very new to straight shaving and cannot hone and would have no idea how to handle a situation where the pitting got worse or rust took to the blade. I'll post a picture or two.
