    Default Genco straight

    Although I was going to wait before buying another straight, I couldn't pass up this Genco I saw on ebay last night. Looks like it's in pretty good condition and the seller did say there was a little rust on it. My first two straights came to me shave ready so this will be the first one I actually have to do something with which has me exicted. Got it for $14.50US incl. shipping.

    Well I'm glad you passed then!

    I was surprised I was the only one that bid on it.

    Nice razor. You'll like the shaves off the Genco. Congrats.

    You acquired it at a very modest price. I keep expecting the Genco brand to creep up in $. I own but one and would consider more.... quickly I fear.

    Thumbs up

    I share some of the enthusiasm here for Genco razors. I have 12 Gencos and also 6 Geneva razors. They are all great shavers and hone fairly easily. I also would like to see Genco $ go up.
