    Default First Buy!! 3 weeks in and already caught RAD..

    Thanks for all the advice Guys, I've been lurking here for a while, Today I finally made my first offline purchase, I've looked in a few shops near me and have found nothing, but the first time I drive across town I score! (I think, 35 bucks for both). Looked them up and the Khaki set is WW1 era (and has the crack in the handle that apparently is very common), and the Griffon xx 00 is circa 1920. RAD is in full swing, heard theres a great antique mall about 30 mins out of town...
    I'm not sure how to post links on this forum, but this is the address of the pictures on imgur (a picture website) of my purchase:

    *ok now I know, just copy and paste from the address bar. haha

    Those are really, that's a neat Gillette set. I actually purchased a Gillette safety razor set of my own yesterday at my local antique store. Mine is a 1920's (I think) pocket edition. Its silver plated and in good condition but unlike yours its missing the blade case.
