    Awesome find! It's great when the stuff we find can be brought back to form and given new life.

    I'm headed out this week to the junk stores, Theseus, while the boy is in school.
    I'll let you know what I find. Hopefully, something.

    One thing is for sure, I'm not bringing home no baby seals.

    If you find a porpoise strop, let me know. That's next on my list of exotic strops.

    Nice finds! I just thought I'd let you know that the flair tip you found is a specific variation call a TV Superspeed. I'd have to double check but I believe it was produced for just one year (1958 I think).

    I think the date code for it was 1958. I'll have to check again when I get home. I do know that it is a fantastic shaver.

    The same company made a better quality strop, though it's extremely rare and goes for a premium price:
