Description
A beautiful razor from 1922 featuring open comb guard and balanced handle. All teeth are straight except 1 outer tooth - a common result from a drop somewhere along its 95 year history. A true classic! This razor comes to you shave ready after going through our extensive Revamp process. Beautiful and shiny new Factory Nickel finish makes this razor a treasure, and it is ready for a lifetime of use with you!
Add this to your heirloom collection, and have something memorable and special to hand down to your kids.
This is a great razor for someone just getting into wet-shaving due to the comfortable shave provided and closeness of shave provided, open combs give a great shave, traditionally more aggressive than most razors. Highly recommended!
