Thread: My first three months of RAD

This is how it started



Awesome shaver.

Got this as a cheapie to practise with

Turns out it is a pretty damn good shaver, only problem is that it is a 7/8 which makes it too big for my personal preferences.

Next was an excursion to Sheffield

Rodgers and Sons 6/8 with ivory scales

Then was a Wosty 4/8


Both very good razors but for some reason I found the Solingen steel easier for me to shapren and keep an edge

Then a quick sidetrip to the USSR for a Vostok 3 commemorative razor. Surprisingly for a Soviet made item it has a good edge and is a good shaver, but I did get it purely as a souvenir.


Condition as received.

Then back to Solingen, focus is now on art-deco styling.

Wester Brothers AttaBoy. Great shaver



S&B Pilot, made by an anonymous German manufacturer



Scotland and Munro. Another re-branded from an anonymous German maker. Rescaled in faux tortiseshell



Lothar Weber, "Weber's Gold" razor. Just a beautiful razor to look at and one of my best shavers. My absolute favourite so far.

A Krusius brothers razor, with a Hill Lalin branding. Awesome shaver and that is real endangered sea creature shell on the handle.




Also a G+F Adoration deluxe. Lightweight shave that is great for daily shaves but isn't great for 3 day growths.

So Frenchy so Chic.
No info on the maker, but the blade is a work of art. The scales will be replaced, but I will need to get a customiser.

Well I did see a filly going for cheap on the bay and it has found a new home with me.



Very good shaver, but I am having trouble seeing the excitement over these razors when Solingen and Sheffield shavers of equal quality sell for much cheaper.

Ah yes, the RAD is strong in this one!
Some fine razor you've got there.
Good start on a fine collection!!

Pretty nice set of razors you got there! Congrats!

Quit buying all the razors on Ebay that I want, jerk
