    Default The palmer 21

    Can anyone give me some history on the palmer 21 razor I was recently passed down a vintage one that is beautiful...it's basically brand new it has never been hone stropped etc...I'm wondering if it is a decent razor that is worth getting shave ready and putting it in my rotation or is it just a show piece....as always thanks guys

    Palmer was a high end hotel in Chicago and of course it had its own barbershop offering haircuts, shaves and etc. They also sold their own branded razors. Good ones too.

    Cool, Glad to see this. I picked myself up a Palmer 21 with very light rusting. Glad to see they're ok. Have to get it ready for the rotation.
    If you don't understand my thought process, please read my mind and It will all make perfect sense and should be enlightening for the both of us.

    Without a photo it is hard to say. Besides, saying it is beautiful and not posting a photo ........
