Oh really? I was struggling to identify these adequately, all I know so far was approximate time periods and the fact that it shaved much less aggressively than my 3-piece NEW bar handle razor… Any other details you can share I’m all ears!
And yes, the straight is a Pyramid Geneva, haven’t tried it but honed it up the other day. Sometimes I wish my whiskers grew faster just so I had an excuse to shave more often!
I like my Geneva, I think it has the Pyramid too though it’s been a while. Yours looks to be in very nice shape. Thanks, now I know what I’m shaving with today. Was actually the first one I honed and it took an edge quite readily. Congrats on the find!
Buddy… only one genco?? :D maybe it’s just me, we all have the brands we find we gravitate to, for me that’s Boker, Genco, and Imperial, I have 3+ of each because they’re all winners. Just got a new imperial today, my 3rd Chicago world’s fair distinct etch! (also like 7/8 which is wild for imperial)
That’s good stuff there!
I think I can see that razor is Geneva, which is good steel. And looks in great shape too.
And that first DE, that’s no normal 40s style superspeed, that’s a much more rare Ranger Tech!
