WHY WAS OUR MADE TO ORDER SECTION CREATED?

We get questions frequently asking if a particular razor they are bidding on through Ebay would be a good candidate for a Revamp. It's impossible to guarantee our analysis is accurate without having the razor in our hands, so we created a solution! Forget the risk of buying online, paying shipping, shipping the razor to us, paying for service work, only to receive the razor back and be disappointed because it wasn't a perfect candidate to begin with.

WHAT IS MADE TO ORDER?

Our 'Made to Order' service allows you to purchase razors that we have already inspected, vetted, and guarantee! Pick the razor model and precious metal of your choosing and your Revamped razor will be shipped in 2-3 weeks!

If you have a preference in Date Codes we will do our best to secure them, however cannot guarantee the date code will be available.

    Hefty and like a tank

    I can easily see why these were worth the extra dollar or two back the day. Compared to a 40's Super Speed, that I also have, it feels like a tank, in a good way. In my opinion, it shaves equivalent to the 40's Super Speed. The larger diameter handle is nice as well, compared to the 40's Super Speed.

    Gillette 40's aristocrat Razor in factory finish

    Seems very well restored and performs excellently. The extra care taken, like the packaging of the razor and polishing cloth with some advice for handling and usage, is really superb. 5/5

    M2O Aristocrat

    Plating is flawless, and with a deeper and richer yellow than other plating services. Two reasons I don't give 5 stars: - The doors don't open so smoothly, everything is not 100% aligned and I have to use my finger to open one of the doors fully. I'd expect perfect mechanics as with my other razors purchased here - I wanted a 1948-1950 notched Aristocrat, but got a 1946-1947 without the notch. No big deal, though

    Razor

    I ordered this MTO razor in the gold plating. It turned out wonderful. I love the way this razor shaves. I will adding an adjustable one to my collection soon.
