    In regards to convenience, Neil, nothing is more convenient than rolling out and sitting on the bed to strop up todays razor! Sweet!

It wasn't quite rubber, but had a kind of rubber feel, very hard, but not as hard as plastic.

    Neil,
    what you got there is the Allegro Flexible 35 Model.

    They also featured the Allegro Flexible 200 travel set


    And the top of the line Allegro Flexible 50


    Marvelous pieces of craftsmanship!

    Cheers from Switzerland
