    Default What does this mean

    What does NOS mean I've seen it in several posts but I'm a novice here and it's probably a silly question but I don't know what it means.

    It means NEW OLD STOCK.

    As in, it is a vintage/old razor that has never been used, honed, restored or altered in any way.

    If it has, I don't believe it is considered NOS any more.

    Hope it helps, I'm sure you'll get more answers than just mine!

    Cheers
