Thread: First and NOS Puma !!

I have one and like it very much. I think it is the only one that Puma made with that style point. If it turns out to be less than the seller described Paypal or ebay buyer protection ought to get your money back.

it is a very nice razor you got there, I just hope that the razor you get looks like the one in the pics,

I am the proud owner of 2 puma's they are fantastic razors im sure you will be as well, like others have stated hoping you get on like the pics or perhaps better, the puma coffins are very nice as well. Here a piece of advertisement about your razor.

Thanks a lot Martin. Is good to know that from an actual owner of this razors. I will post pictures of the razor once I get it.

well here it is... My first PUMA,, although is it not NOS... as it shows signs of use. (the gold wash is almos gone),, besides that is shows a few pitting spots, two of them pretty noticeable, the good thing is that they arent close to the edge so it should be useful for many years to come. I made shure I cleaned the blade very well with metal polish where the pitting is located, so with good maintenance the pitting should not increase anymore. I made an arrangement with the seller to give me a partial refund as I wanted to keep it. So what do you think?? I had my first shave today and it was veeeery smoooth.. Im really loving this pre- WWII razor. Now I understand why everybody want a PUMA in their collection
The bad: I want another PUMA, this time a NOS PUMA gold...

Man, I think these photo's have just kicked in the "just one more" phase of my RAD again.
already got my eye on one thats ending in a few days =]
very nice =]

ledemon,

That's too bad about not being actual NOS, but good that you followed up with the seller and he worked with you.

I really like to RenWax my razors, both for storage, but also for use. It helps keep things from sticking to the blade, offers some protection for the blade for a period of time, minus the spine and edge for obvious reasons, and I'm not sure about the gold wash.....I don't use any razors with gold. Collected some, but not really used.

Nice looking razor!!! Congrats, and enjoy it!!!
