    It's a Superspeed. Good deal for $5. I started wet shaving with one of these. It's a good razor. If you have access to an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner, that's an easy way to clean it. It can be re-plated, but if it were me, I'd just get some Feather DE blades and shave with it.

    +1 on the Ultrasonic cleaner, they work great with just some warm water, dawn dish soap and a spray or two of windex

    Go to the Safety razor threads to find good blade sources.
    Have fun and go slow with the first couple shaves!

    Follow Richards advice & if you have an ultrasonic cleaner, it will clean up nice.
