Thread: YOUR OPINION PLEASE

Just to make things interisting,whats the concencous on the most beautiful Razors made,not customs,Factory made, Ive seen Globsman on E-bay and they always seem to have paid particular
attention on thier looks,never shaved with one,but they are always beautiful.
Whats your opinion?

They are usually with decorative spines. That is all I know. I never had one, but expect they are good Solingen shavers.

Okay, I don't have any of "the most beautiful razors" yet, but after a year and a half of looking at lots of razor porn on here, let me tell you which ones I lust after the most for their looks (in no particular order)

-Either Joseph Rodgers or W&B For Barbers Use-either way, one of those big meat chopper smiling Sheffield wedges (maybe for my birthday?)
-DublDuck Wonderedge in clear acrylic scales
-Otto Deusch Hans
-Filarmonica EPBD, DT 14, one of those
-Dovo Bergischer Lowe
-Higher end Wackers and Revisors (don't know specific models)

Several others I can't think of right now. I've got RAD real bad, just with limited funds to do much about it!

TIPTLE! Oh wait, you said beautiful, not ugly...

Most beautiful - Joseph Rodgers without question. Of course, there's plenty of kitsch that many people seem to really like, but for style nothing beats the top sheffield. Second place for me is Heljestrand MK32.

tiptle's kinda charming in a short-bus riding kind of way
the lancet is also pretty odd, but more like a gimp

I agree with Rodgers. They made some really beautiful razors.

What's a concencous...?

I've seen Globsman, and they are a keen looker. Revisor seems to always have a "well dressed" razor with it's handles and blade decorations, often in Gold. Herr Heribert Wacker also had and has some of the most outstanding well decorated blades out there. But, for the sheer number of what I have seen Revisor seems to have the most number of highly decorated razors I've run across. I own 3 outstanding shavers.

Funny, I had you pegged for a Freddy Reynolds man, Dylan!
