    Default Picked up yet another Genco :)

    Just got lucky and got a Genco Master Barber in pretty decent condition on ye olde Fleabay

    Looking forward to honing and shaving with it

    Was just wondering if anyone could help with a general "era" this razor was from?
    Thanks!

    Cool! I already have 2 Genco's that I got from PinkLather and are my favorite shavers, I got this one CHEAP and figure I will try to hone it, if it goes badly I'll send it to a pro.

    So it was only made for 33 years, nice!!
